ZF Friedrichshafen AG plans to open a 171,000-sq-ft global electronics headquarters for its ZF TRW unit in Farmington Hills, Mich., by June, Crain’s Detroit Business reports.
The facility will house more than 600 employees. ZF TRW will retain its current North American headquarters in nearby Livonia. Earlier this month ZF said it also is relocating its North American headquarters to the Livonia complex from its current location in Plymouth, Mich.
The company says the new facility will include component and vehicle test labs as well as offices for engineers, technicians and support staff. The group will support ZF TRW’s array of driver assist, occupant safety and other electronics products and help develop systems that enable semi- and fully autonomous vehicles.
