According to Reuters, Getrag, the world’s largest independent producer of manual transmissions, will invest EUR34m (US$41.3m) to hold a two-thirds stake in the Nanchang-based venture, named GETRAG (Jiangxi) Transmission.


Jiangling reportedly will bring three production plants into the venture and will hold the remaining one-third stake.


“During the next 2-3 years, the new company will produce more than 550,000 manual and automated manual transmissions and more than 1.7 million sets of transmission components per annum primarily for the Chinese market,” a statement cited by Reuters said.


Getrag and Dana last week announced co-operation on driveline components.
