The Chinese
government has today approved NEVS’ application to start production of electric
vehicles in its manufacturing plant in Tianjin.
I am very grateful for the
approval we now have received for the electric vehicle production license. It
is an extremely important milestone for NEVS, which is based on 70 years of
Saab long history.
It means that we can take the next step to realize our
vision - to shape mobility for a more sustainable future, says Kai Johan Jiang,
chairman of NEVS.
The electric vehicle
production license approved by the Chinese National Development Reform
Commission (NDRC) is required in order to manufacture electric vehicles in
China.
NEVS is the first joint venture company with investors from outside
China that is granted a New Energy Passenger Vehicle Project investment
approval by NDRC.
NEVS' manufacturing plant in
Tianjin is under construction and planned to be up and running at the end of
2017, with the capacity of 200 000 electric passenger vehicles yearly.
The electric car industry is
growing rapidly in China. NEVS plan is to develop a product portfolio of
electric vehicles and mobility services globally, with China as the first and
most demanding market for the coming years.
The immediate plan is to deliver
150 000 9-3 Sedan electric vehicles to the partner Panda New Energy, a new
energy vehicle leasing company in China.
