Yesterday Volkswagen AG and partner FAW Group opened the first of three new assembly plants to begin operations in China this summer.
The new factory in Qingdao is building the next-generation VW Bora/Jetta sedan and make batteries for plug-in hybrid and all-electric vehicles, according to the German carmaker.
VW and FAW plan to launch assembly operations at new facilities in Foshan next month and in Tianjin in August. All three plants will support VW’s plan to introduce more SUV/crossover models in China, along with an array of 40 locally made plug-in hybrid and all-electric models by 2025—many of them produced by VW with another Chinese partner, SAIC.
