A giant of the electric car industry “BYD” is considering launching a factory in Germany
Abdullah Al-Haqim 
A well -informed source told “Reuters” that the Chinese electric automotive giant BDi is studying the German market to establish a third factory to collect its products in Europe, after Germany, the largest economy and car market in the region, opposed the customs duties imposed by the European Union on the electric vehicles manufactured in China last year.
Chinese car manufacturers are looking to launch manufacturing and assembly facilities in Europe in an effort to sell more low -cost cars in the region, in light of European competition and slowdown in demand in China, the largest car market in the world.
It also seeks to avoid the customs duties imposed by the European Union on the electric cars in China last year.
The source pointed out that Germany is the perfect choice for the Chinese company, despite the high costs of employment and energy, low productivity and poor flexibility. No final decision has been made yet.
The source refused to publish his name because he was not authorized to speak to the media.
