Who actually makes Tao Motor Inc.?

What the Tao Motor filings say about the engines

Tao Motor's filings mix carburettors and fuel injection: 200 rows carburetted, 31 injected. The first injected family appears in 2023, and from 2027 injected families outnumber carburetted ones; in 2027 the split was 0 carburetted to 2 injected. Check which you have before buying anything on the fuel side.

The engine codes on Tao Motor's test vehicles —18 distinct across the filings — are led by 154FMI, TZ152FMH, 1P57QMJ, 167FMM and 1P39QMB. The code is stamped on the crankcase and is a better search term than the badge.

122 of the 231 filings are 50-state (California-legal); the other 109 were 49-state only.

Rated power across the range runs from 1.3 kW to 71.2 kW (about 2 to 95 hp).

The vehicle builders named are Zhejiang Taotao Vehicles Co.,Ltd., ZheijiangTaoTao Vehicles Co., Ltd., Baike Vehicle Vietnam Co. Ltd. and Zhejiang Taotao Vehicles Co.,Ltd.. and others — the chassis and the engine do not always share a source.

Each figure is read straight off the EPA certificate rows; the per-family pages below carry the full breakdown for every engine family.
