German auto giant BMW on February 2 announced to build a global research and development (R&D) center in China to enable its vehicles to cater to local buyers.
The R&D center in Shenyang, capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, will be one of the group's key R&D facilities globally.
"We will have a bigger production base here in China, so we will modify more vehicles to meet customer demands," said Christoph Stark, CEO of BMW Group Region China. |
