counting on the expected resumption of operations in mid-next year, thereby promoting the increase of production and economic movement in the region. The plant, which has been facing difficulties, will be able to reinvent itself and contribute to the strengthening of the automotive sector in the country.

It is still not completely defined which vehicles will be launched in the country, but speculations center on the models Omoda 5, Jaecoo 5, and Jaecoo 7. It is important to highlight that the brand’s largest SUV, the Jaecoo 9, is already registered with the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI).

If it is not possible, the director stated that he already has an alternative plan in mind — to establish a factory in another nearby municipality. “Brazil represents 80% of the market in South America. If we do not succeed in this market, it will be very difficult to thrive in the region.”

The subdivisions of Chery announced that they will introduce three car models in the country initially — one under the Omoda brand and two under the Jaecoo brand. All, however, will be electric vehicles, aiming to compete with Chinese companies GWM and BYD.

Industrial Plant in Jacareí is Target of Omoda/Jaecoo Executive

The facility that piques the interest of the Omoda/Jaecoo executive is located in Jacareí, a city in the interior of São Paulo. This factory was established by Chery in 2014 but temporarily ceased operations in 2022, with plans to resume its activities in 2025.

Shawn Xu, who served as site director between 2019 and 2022, expressed his intention to produce in Brazil, more specifically in Jacareí, and to invest in the factory. However, he revealed that he is facing obstacles due to a dispute with Caoa and is determined to do everything possible to persuade the Brazilian side of the partnership to release the industrial complex.

“We want to produce in Brazil, in Jacareí, and invest in the factory, but there is a dispute with Caoa that prevents us,” revealed Shawn Xu.

The brands Omoda and Jaecoo, from China, are preparing to enter the Brazilian automotive market. Both are part of the Chery group and are in the expansion phase, without the involvement of Caoa. The main goal is not only to import cars electrified for Brazil, but also to start local production.

In an interview with Motor1, Shawn Xu, vice president of Chery International and CEO of Omoda/Jaecoo, revealed that the plan is to use an already existing factory in Brazil for the production of vehicles. This move represents a significant step for the expansion of the Chinese automotive industry in Brazil, promising to bring more options to consumers and create jobs in the country.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

Without wheels, iron, or machines, teams of up to 32 men would have dragged 2.3-ton blocks over wet sand up a ramp embedded in the pyramid itself, raising the structure in 20 to 27 years, according to a new computer model that reignites a millennia-old debate.

The largest car carrier ship in the world will unload 7,200 BYD cars at the SC Port in June, but before that, an Italian ship will arrive this Tuesday with another 4,500 vehicles, totaling 11,700 cars, 150 workers, and a 24-hour non-stop operation at the Port of Itajaí.

African country launched a $145 million project to rehabilitate 35 dams and drill deep wells seeking water stored for millennia beneath the desert, a plan that Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s government presents as a path to the country’s water sovereignty.

A 400-meter colossus powered by natural gas has just set sail from Shanghai to Europe, carrying over 24,000 containers. It is the world’s largest dual-fuel container ship and can cross the planet without refueling even once.

The largest highway concession company in Brazil already belongs to an Italian group, and now the railway sector may be next to receive billions in investments from Italy amid the progress of the Mercosur and European Union agreement.

A new study overturns the central idea we learned about planets and suggests that Earth is the exception rather than the rule; most rocky worlds in the galaxy may not have a core or mantle, just a single turbulent fluid extending to the center.

Forget the basic popular car: used sedans like Passat CC, Kia Cerato, Nissan Altima, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Volvo S60 show that it’s still possible to buy more performance, comfort, and technology for less than many new compacts.

Used Honda Civic: 3 versions of the Japanese sedan with naturally aspirated engines of up to 155 hp, fuel consumption of up to 13.8 km/l, robust automatic transmission, and a reputation for reliable mechanics still dominate the used car market in Brazil.

Toyota Hilux becomes a ‘cargo truck’: automaker declares a new era for the pickup with greater capacity, reinforced chassis, 2.8 turbodiesel engine, raised suspension, 1,525 kg load capacity, and targets Ford Ranger Super Duty, which tows an impressive 4,500 kg.
