Volkswagen has officially opened a brand - new testing center in Hefei, Anhui Province. This center stands as the first full - process R&D (Research and Development) verification base established by Volkswagen outside its German headquarters. The center encompasses a wide range of functions, including hardware - software integration, battery testing, and comprehensive vehicle validation. By utilizing this facility, Volkswagen is expected to cut down vehicle R&D time by 30%. This strategic move signifies Volkswagen's successful establishment of a complete R&D system in China, creating a localized closed - loop process that spans from vehicle development all the way to production.
