A Beijing Benz Automotive Co (BBAC) invested battery plant project is currently undergoing a secondary structural construction phase and is expected to be completed by the end of 2019.

The entire plant covers an area of 56,300 square meters. It will be the first battery production base of BBAC.

Based in the BDA, BBAC is a joint venture founded by BAIC Motor, Daimler AG and DGRC. The company currently produces Mercedes-Benz C-Class, long wheelbase E-Class and GLK SUV vehicles. The new plant extensions will accommodate the future production of new generation compact cars (NGCC) based on Mercedes-Benz front-wheel drive architecture.
