Ford had been talking with companies including BYD to sell the factory but may now convert it into a technology center
Ford had been hopeful that it would be able to sell its factory in Saarlouis, Germany but talks with a potential investor have fallen through and the site is now on course for a thorough makeover. Unnamed sources assert that Ford had held discussions with a number of Chinese automakers who were said to be interested in purchasing the plant.
The boss of Ford Europe’s passenger car business, Martin Sander, informed workers at the plant that it would look for an alternative plan that would allow it to save 1,000 of the 4,400 jobs at the factory. Ford says this plan would see it convert the site into a technology center but further details about this center are not known at this early stage.
