Chery Group Hits 20,000 Vehicle Milestone at Rayong Plant
Chery Group has successfully produced 20,000 New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) at its Rayong facility in just five months, signaling plans for further expansion.
According to a report by Prachachat Business, Chery Group has reached a significant production milestone at its manufacturing facility in Rayong, Thailand. The company announced that it has successfully assembled 20,000 New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) within a five-month period. This achievement highlights the group's operational capacity and its commitment to utilizing Thailand as a strategic production hub for the region.
For residents and those interested in the local automotive market, this development underscores the growing presence of Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers in Thailand. Chery Group has indicated that it intends to expand its local operations further. The company plans to introduce assembly lines for three additional brands: LEPAS, iCAUR, and LUXEED. Furthermore, the group is reportedly developing a dedicated vehicle testing track on a 40-rai plot of land to support its ongoing research and development efforts.
While the production milestone is confirmed, specific timelines for the launch of the new brands and the completion of the testing facility remain to be finalized. As the automotive landscape in Thailand continues to shift toward electric mobility, these developments suggest a long-term investment strategy by Chery Group in the local economy. Observers will be watching to see how quickly these new brands enter the consumer market and how the expanded infrastructure impacts local automotive supply chains.
