Brazilian Electric Cars: Great Wall Will Invest R$ 10 Billion to Become the First Manufacturer of Electric Cars in the Country

On the last Thursday, January 27, the Chinese automotive company Great Wall Motors announced it will start its operations in Brazil. With the arrival of the new brand, there will also be an investment of over R$ 10 billion, along with the production of its own electric cars. Although it has already announced its ambitious plans, the manufacturer has yet to disclose any specific products but hinted that it will have a portfolio consisting of hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric models.

In an article published by Autoesporte in August of last year, Great Wall acquired an old factory from Mercedes-Benz in Iracemápolis, São Paulo. The automotive manufacturer’s goal is to achieve 60% localization in its cars, including electric ones, by 2025, employing over 2,000 direct workers and 8,000 indirect workers. Additionally, the Chinese company aims to raise approximately R$ 30 billion in the Brazilian consumer market during this period.

Great Wall intends to bring the first imported car from China in the last quarter of 2022. The first Brazilian launch, which will be manufactured in Iracemápolis, is expected to hit the market starting in the second quarter of 2023.
