To strengthen localisation
The test center Yancheng, occupying 2,500 sq m in phase one, including offices and testing workshops, is Continental's newest testing facility in China after the winter test center in Heihe. It will provide Continental with a more solid foundation for technical support and product development in China, strengthening Continental's leading position as an international automotive and systems supplier in the market.

Frank Jourdan, Member of the Executive Board of Continental AG and President of the Chassis & Safety Division, said: "The opening of the test center Yancheng reflects Continental's long-term commitment to the Chinese market through developing local products and providing Chinese customers with cutting-edge technologies and R&D capabilities.

"In addition, we are very happy to cooperate with CATARC so that the new test center will also bring the most advanced safety technologies to China. It is our goal to meet local market demands, as well as help to enhance China's road safety consciousness and support the realization of ‘Vision Zero'".
