Shanghai. March 4 (Gasgoo.com) - China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) has recently approved Chery's new engine plant in Wuhu, Anhui province, according to an announcement released by NDRC on its official web.
 
The new engine plant will mainly produce 1.3L 477FB and 1.5L 477F engines, which may be equipped on Chery A3 and Qiyun models.
 
Jin Gebo, the director of Chery's administrative office, however, denied that the Qiyun 1.3L and 1.6L models will be equipped with the new engine, as the new plant has just got approval and is far from completion.
 
Currently Chery has two engine plants in China with annual capacities of 500,000 units. Both plants produce Acteco engines and other Chery brand engines.
 
Meanwhile Chery now has a sedan capacity of 850,000 units per year. "The construction of the third engine plant will ease pressure on Chery's engines output capacity," Jin added.
