Garrett Motion, the differentiated technology provider for the automotive industry, has announced plans to expand and modernize its existing production facility in Wuhan, China.

Garrett’s Wuhan plant opened in 2013 and currently serves major local and global automakers. The expansion, expected to increase its state-of-the-art facility by 50%, is scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2022.

“Garrett has achieved significant growth in Wuhan since we commenced operations in this key industrial hub over seven years ago,” said Olivier Rabiller, president and CEO of Garrett. “Our production rate in Wuhan has grown more than 60% annually from 2014 to 2020. Further, our strong performance in all of China in 2020, despite the impact of a global pandemic, underscores the broader need to expand our footprint in the world’s largest auto market. We are pleased to strengthen our presence in Wuhan and remain committed to investing in the future success of our company while supporting high-tech enterprise for the benefit of the local community.”
