Hey fam, big news from Shanghai! At the recent China International Import Expo, CGTN's Wang Tianyu chatted with Volkswagen CEO Oliver Blume about how VW plans to stay on top in the Chinese mainland's electric vehicle game. 🔌🚗
Blume didn't hold back. He highlighted:
- Fierce competition: The Chinese mainland market is packed with local EV champs innovating at warp speed.
- Powerful partnerships: VW's teaming up with top local players to boost R&D and ramp up production.
- Future focus: From smart tech to sustainable materials, VW's eyeing new ways to win hearts (and roads!).
Translation = VW knows the race is on and is turbocharging its strategy with local insights and collabs. As Blume put it, "We have strong competitors and great partners in the Chinese mainland." 💪🤝
For young pros in South and Southeast Asia, this means more cutting-edge EV tech rolling off the line—and maybe more jobs and tech transfers down the road. 🌏✨
Keep your eyes peeled—VW's moves could shake up the market and make green rides more accessible than ever. Who's ready for the next-gen EV wave? 🌊⚡
