Heavy snowstorm disrupts China's automobile production
Shanghai. January 29 (Gasgoo) – A heavy snowstorm has forced two automobile production plants in central China's Wuhan to suspend production for a whole day, local newspaper reported today.
Dongfeng Honda Automobile Co and Dongfeng Peugeot Citroen Automobile Co both were forced to shut down as auto parts supply was shut off by an unprecedented snowstorm which has crippled highway traffic in most part of China's southern areas.
To meet this challenge, Dongfeng Honda has resorted to its spare parts inventory and chartered airplanes to deliver much-needed small parts. Dongfeng Honda is under a lot of pressure to deliver its hot-selling CR-V sports utility vehicles to customers who have paid down payment.
Dongfeng Peugeot Citroen is PSA's only joint venture in China, which is capable of producing 20,000 units annually; Dongfeng Honda currently has a capacity of 120,000 units annually.
