More than 40 new products, 8 powertrains and 4 platforms, as well as the development of new Bio-Hybrid technologies, innovative decarbonization technologies throughout the automotive supply chain, and new strategic business opportunities are planned over the next few years, based on record investment of R$32 billion for South America, the largest in the history of the region’s automotive industry.
