Audi Hungária Breaks Ten-Year Output Record

Audi Hungária turned out 177,000 cars at its production base in Győr, in north-western Hungary, last year, breaking an output record, Péter Szijjártó, minister of foreign affairs and trade, said.

Szijjártó noted that Mercedes was continuously expanding its plant in Kecskemét, in central Hungary, and BMW was constructing a base in Debrecen, in the east of the country.

“As a result, Hungary has become part of an exclusive elite club with China and Germany, where all three of Germany’s premium car brands have an independent base,” Szijjártó said on Facebook.

While “some Western European politicians are constantly spreading the ideology aimed at splitting the Chinese and European economies, reality is thankfully completely different: after the big Chinese and Korean battery plants serving the German companies the world’s biggest Electric vehicle maker, China’s BYD is also bringing its first European plant to Hungary,” the minister said.
