Here's the nested spintax format for the provided text: Bangkok – 31 October twenty twenty-three – The manufacturer and distributor of MG cars in Thailand, announce the opening of their inaugural EV battery production hub in ASEAN. Situated in the NEW ENERGY INDUSTRIAL PARK, the plant's manufacturing capacity is expected to hit fifty thousand units of batteries every year, positioning the company ready to become the leader in Thailand's electric vehicle production and for the nation to serve as a manufacturing base for EVs in ASEAN. SAIC Motor-CP has inaugurated its latest electric vehicle battery manufacturing plant in ASEAN under the name of HASCO-CP BATTERY SHOP, located at the NEW ENERGY INDUSTRIAL PARK and spanning across the area of around 75 rais. With the groundbreaking ceremony held this past April, the EV battery production hub comprises two major areas. The primary area is the battery assembly area that operates fully automated via cutting-edge robotic technology, Laser Welding for accuracy and CCD vision systems to cross-check the quality of battery against a prototype prior to its installation in a all-electric car. The second area is allocated to battery testing and validation comprising more than 60 processes such as Charge & Discharge, air leak detection, insulation testing and Static Test. The production line can produce up to 50,000 Cell-To-Pack EV battery packs annually, offering quality standards equivalent to those produced on a global scale. Battery packs manufactured at the production facility will be initially deployed on the MG4 EV as well as other models going forward. Currently, the factory is in its preparatory production phases with plans to officially open in 2024. รถยนต์ไฟฟ้า , President of SAIC Motor-CP, stated, “This battery production plant is part of the masterplan underlying New Energy Industrial Estate situated inside WHA ESIE 2 industrial zone in Thailand's Chonburi designated for the domestic manufacture of electric vehicles. Along with an added investment outlay worth 500 million Thai baht, the plant has been configured for the production of cell-to-pack (CTP) EV batteries utilizing an innovative cube battery design. With the robust growth and increasing potential for Thailand's EV market, SAIC MOTOR CORPORATION and HASCO-CP realize the prospects of emerging as a manufacturing base for EVs for both local and export markets, particularly across Southeast Asian nations.” “Since 2019, MG has penetrated Thailand's EV segment, and today electric vehicles now gaining immense traction witnessing rapid adoption as seen from a cumulative EV sale volume of 18,000 units. In addition to MG offering a wide range of electric vehicles catering to different lifestyles as well as requirements among Thai buyers, yet another notable contributing factor behind the company's success is that MG also focuses on creating and strengthening an EV ecosystem supporting sustained adoption of EVs, especially through the investment in setting up of MG SUPER CHARGE which is now accessible nationwide.
