Indonesia

The Mofang was introduced in Indonesia on 14 May 2024 as the X55 II, although retaining the physical 'BEIJING' emblems.[30] Sales were commenced in July 2024 at the 31st Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show.[31] It is one of BAIC's first models sold in the country, alongside the BJ40 Plus.

On 29 April 2025, the X55 II received a minor update. Responding to the poor sales of the 2024 model, the 'BEIJING' emblems were replaced by 'BAIC' emblems.[32] An entry-level variant, dubbed the "Lite", was also introduced, with the previous single variant was renamed to "Prime". Other changes include an integration of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to its infotainment system, a cool box on its centre console, and a Platinum Black exterior colour.[33][34]

Malaysia

The Mofang will be sold in Malaysia as the X55 in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the Malaysian market, it will be locally assembled at EP Manufacturing's new facility in Melaka by 2025.

Three examples of the vehicle were first showcased in October 2023 during the ground-breaking ceremony event of EP Manufacturing's Melaka facility, initially referred as the X55 II.[35] A pre-production model with the finalized X55 nameplate was introduced on 16 May 2024, alongside the BJ40 Plus.[36] Two variants will be available at launch: Standard and Premium.

Philippines

In the Philippines, the Mofang is marketed as the X55 Verve. It was introduced in March 2024, alongside the B40 Ragnar, B60 Beaumont, B80 Wagon and X7 Grandeza, coinciding with the re-launch of the BAIC brand in the country for the second time, following its distribution acquisition by the local distributor United Asia Automotive Group Inc. (UAAGI).[37] Sales were commenced in April 2024 at the 19th Manila International Auto Show.[38] Excluding the 'Verve' suffix, despite being referred simply as the 'BAIC X55' in marketing materials, it retains the physical 'BEIJING' emblems. The emblems were changed to 'BAIC' since around late 2024 or early 2025.
