In response to foreign media reports that the Gaoyang government of South Korea has signed a memorandum of understanding with BAIC to build a large electric vehicle production facility at the site of the Gaoyang Free Economic Zone, BAIC issued a solemn statement on false information on Weibo on the evening of March 7.
According to the statement, BAIC found that some South Korean media had released reports about the signing of a memorandum of cooperation between BAIC and Gaoyang, South Korea, to build an annual production capacity of 200000 electric car plants in Gaoyang, South Korea. It has been verified that neither GOMSD of Korea (strain) nor Gaoyang of South Korea has established a cooperative relationship with BAIC, and we have never approached the above two parties on cooperation matters. BAIC pointed out that the above news is purely false. We have initiated an investigation into the incident and reserve the right to retroactive legal liability for related acts.
The thing is, South Korea's Gaoyang City said on March 6 that it had signed a memorandum of understanding with Chinese car company Beijing Automobile to build a large electric vehicle production facility at the site of the Gaoyang Free Economic Zone, South Korean media Chosunbiz reported. The new plant has an annual capacity target of 200000 vehicles and plans to export 90 per cent of its electric vehicles to markets outside South Korea. Through the agreement, Beijing Automotive will invest about 2 million square meters and about 4 trillion won (21.6 billion yuan) in the Gaoyang Free Economic Zone to build production and sales facilities for electric vehicles. With an annual production target of 200000 units, 90 per cent of electric vehicles are planned to be exported to markets outside South Korea. In addition, the report also pointed out that Gaoyang City plans to send a delegation to visit the Chinese headquarters at the invitation of Beijing Automobile next month to visit the site and implement the contents of the agreement.
