JAC Motors Considers Electric Car Production in Bulgaria
Chinese automaker JAC Motors is exploring opportunities to start making electric cars in Bulgaria, the Balkan country's economy ministry said.
"JAC Motors looks at Bulgaria as an entry point to the European markets for the electric-powered cars and buses it is manufacturing," the ministry said in a statement.
During a meeting with Bulgarian senior state officials, JAC Motors' representatives said the company - based in Hefei city in the central Chinese province of Anhui - could in future consider establishing assembling operations in Bulgaria using locally manufactured components.
Bulgaria's location on the southeastern edge of Europe, near Turkey and bordering Romania, as well as low taxes and labour costs, are helping to attract investment in car parts production.
