Volkswagen is currently doing business in China mainly through two companies, FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC-Volkswagen. In the view of analysts, Volkswagen Anhui, the automaker's joint venture with JAC Motors offers new scope for its growth in China.

Volkswagen Anhui, previously known as JAC Volkswagen Automobile Co, was established in 2017 as a joint venture between Volkswagen Group and JAC, and is the German automaker's first joint venture in China to focus on new energy vehicles (NEVs). 

At the end of 2020, Volkswagen increased its stake in the company to 75 percent and had it renamed Volkswagen Anhui to focus primarily on the development and production of NEVs.

Volkswagen Anhui will be built as Volkswagen's third MEB plant in China , with the first model expected to go into production in the second half of 2023. On February 23rd, 2022, Volkswagen China announced that the Body Shop of Volkswagen (Anhui)’s MEB factory has completed construction, and equipment installation is scheduled in March.
