The new plant strengthens Nexteer's ability to meet growing demand for advanced motion control technologies in Southeast Asia while enhancing the company's local responsiveness and support for OEM customers. It also reinforces Nexteer's position as a preferred supplier to leading Chinese OEMs that are rapidly expanding their presence in the region.

The 5,000-square-meter facility has officially commenced production following a successful launch phase, initially focusing on Column-Assist Electric Power Steering (CEPS) systems. CEPS systems integrate the motor, controller and sensors within the steering column to deliver precise and efficient steering performance.

"Nexteer is committed to delivering exceptional value and responsiveness to our OEM customers, and our new Thailand facility represents a strategic investment to expand our capabilities in Southeast Asia," said Jun Li, Nexteer's Sr. Vice President, Chief Strategy Officer & APAC Division President. "With this grand opening, Nexteer is now even better positioned to serve our customers' growing needs. As we ramp up production, we will continue evaluating growth opportunities to expand our capabilities and further capitalize on the strong growth momentum in APAC, particularly in Southeast Asia."

Nexteer's Thailand facility joins the company's global network of 27 manufacturing plants, five technical centers and 13 customer service centers across major automotive markets worldwide.
