en.Wedoany.com Reported - Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk recently announced that Poland will collaborate with Foxconn (from Taiwan, China) and its electric vehicle subsidiary Foxtron, through ElectroMobility Poland (EMP), to establish a large-scale electric vehicle manufacturing center in Jaworzno, Poland. The facility plans to produce three mid-sized models, including a sport utility vehicle (SUV). The factory is scheduled to begin production in 2029, with an estimated annual capacity of 400,000 vehicles.

EMP was founded in 2016 as a joint venture among several Polish state-owned energy companies, aiming to develop the Polish electric vehicle brand named Izera. The first prototype was unveiled in 2020, but the planned factory construction failed to materialize, and the project was terminated in 2024. EMP CEO Cyprian Gronkiewicz previously stated that factory construction was planned to start in the spring of 2027, contingent on signing a joint venture agreement with Foxconn and its subsidiary Foxtron.

The joint venture plans to further develop Foxtron's existing platforms. These second-generation platforms are expected to involve over 70% of development work by Polish engineers, with the project co-funded by EMP and Foxconn. Poland plans to provide a total of 45 billion zloty (approximately 10.6 billion euros) in loans from the EU Recovery Fund for the project.

Foxconn is one of the world's largest electronic manufacturing service providers and has been actively expanding into the electric vehicle sector in recent years. Its subsidiary Foxtron already has mature electric vehicle reference designs and has begun selling electric vehicles under its own brand. The implementation of this project in Poland will further expand Foxconn's manufacturing footprint in the global electric vehicle market. As Poland's first large-scale electric vehicle manufacturing project, its completion will have a significant impact on the country's automotive industry and regional economic development.
