SAIC Motor-CP, the Chinese-Thai car maker, plans to open a new assembly plant in Rayong’s Hemaraj Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate by June 2014, reported Bangkok Post.
The Charoen Pokphand Group late last year announced it had formed a joint venture with Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) for first-phase investment of 10 billion baht in the Chinese company's manufacturing facility in Thailand
The company intends to make Thailand its manufacturing base for the well-known British brand MG to serve both the local market and exports. It bought the MG brand in 2005.
Initial annual production will be 50,000 units, with plans for output eventually to rise to 200,000 cars per year.
MG cars are expected to go on sale in Thailand in 2014, with three models being launched _ the MG3, MG5 and MG6. Parts will be imported from China for assembly here.
SAIC now operates four car brands _ Maxus, Roewe, MG and Yuejin. It has six plants across China and one in Britain.
SAIC earlier said it planned to spend 20 billion baht in Thailand to set up a design and research centre in the future.
By the 1970s, the company had a virtual monopoly on the supply of chicken and eggs in Thailand.
