Audi and joint venture partner SAIC will co-develop an electric platform specifically for the Chinese market.
BEIJING — Volkswagen's premium brand Audi said on Monday it would jointly develop a new China-specific platform for intelligent and electric vehicles with its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC.
Audi and SAIC will develop models built on new architecture called the Advanced Digitized Platform, which"enables Audi to significantly reduce time-to-market by more than 30%," the Germany legacy marque said in a statement. In another example of Europe's growing reliance on Chinese expertise in EVs, Franco-Italian automaker Stellantis said earlier this month its venture with Chinese partner Leapmotor would start selling two Leapmotor models in Europe from September.
