Porsche Engineering, technology service provider and wholly owned subsidiary of Porsche, establishes another Chinese site to even better meet the ever-expanding localization needs for the Chinese market, particularly in terms of highly automated driving, connectivity, infotainment, and assistance systems.
The new location in Beijing extends and complements the competencies of Porsche Engineering at its other Chinese site in Shanghai, where more than 130 employees are already working on various high-tech automotive projects.
“Developments for China are ideally pursued in China itself; only there are the engineers close enough to the market and customers to develop China-specific functions,” says Peter Schäfer, CEO of Porsche Engineering and Chairman of the Advisory Board of Porsche Engineering in China. “We have already been well positioned for this in Shanghai, and the Beijing office’s close proximity to key customers will support us in our plans to build an even stronger presence on China’s market, further strengthening our capabilities in developing intelligent and connected vehicles.” The new R&D office is located in Chaoyang District where a host of well-known automotive companies have set up their offices.
