Magna has announced that its Magna Electronics operating unit has started a new automotive camera production line at its Zhangjiagang plant in China. The facility will produce ReversAid cameras, which provide drivers with an undistorted rear view of the vehicle while in reverse.
In addition, later this year the plant will add a production line for its forward facing imaging modules, which assist drivers by automatically reacting to certain driving situations. Both products come from Magna Electronics’ EYERISTM global product line, a comprehensive portfolio of innovative and intelligent driver assistance systems.
“Magna Electronics has been developing advanced driver assistance systems for many years. The startup of these production lines is a great introduction of EYERIS to the Chinese market and demonstrates our capabilities in delivering innovative technologies our customers expect,” said Olaf Bongwald, Vice President, Magna Electronics.
Magna Electronics (Zhangjiagang) Co., Ltd facility, formerly known as Magna Suxing Electronics (Zhangjiagang) Co., Ltd., has approximately 100 employees and supplies components and systems to Ford, General Motors, Honda, Fiat, Geely and Great Wall.
