Volkswagen and its Chinese partner SAIC have shuttered production at a plant in China due to slowing demand for internal combustion engine cars, a Volkswagen spokesman told AFP Friday.
"Volkswagen Group and its joint venture partners are accelerating the transformation towards electric, intelligent, connected vehicles," the spokesman said.
"Many SAIC Volkswagen sites are currently being converted or have already been converted for electric vehicle production," he added.
The spokesman confirmed that production had ceased at a plant in Nanjing, a move first reported by business daily Handelsblatt.
