SHANGHAI (Reuters) -WHA Group, the Thai industrial property developer, mentioned on Tuesday that it and China’s BYD are set to announce plans for an electrical car (EV) manufacturing facility in Thailand.
The 2 corporations will maintain a joint information convention on plans for an EV facility in an industrial property in Rayong on Thursday, in response to an invite from WHA Group.
Thailand’s Board of Funding in August permitted a bunch of funding pledges together with BYD’s 17.9 billion baht ($491 million) challenge to supply EVs.
BYD expects to begin promoting EVs in Thailand later this 12 months, Chinese language media outlet Jiemian reported.
