Electric vehicle factory opening in Batumi An electric vehicle factory shall be opened in Batumi – stated Lasha Komakhidze, Mayor of Batumi in TV show Sakmiani Dila. This will be a Georgia-Chinese enterprise, assembling ekectric vehicles- mainly electric buses and minibuses. “Two days ago I returned completed an official visit to China together with the Head of the Government. The topic of the discussions was construction of an electric vehicle factory in Batumi, which has actually been decided. We are talking about a Georgian-Chinese joint company, assembling electric vehicles – electric busses and minibuses. I believe that this is a very good decision, since there is no enterprise like this in the region.
Strategic location of the city was the decisive argument for convincing our Chinese partners, since all types of communication means are present in Batumi – sea, railway, air and also vicinity to all strategic neighbors – I think these were the decisive factors that attracted the attention of Chinese partners,” – stated the Mayor of Batumi.
