TCL were responsible for the design of a comprehensive and complete auto-manifacturing base in Guangzhou serving all of Southern China and the international auto market. The new Car City covering 50 sq.km, includes an Auto Industrial Park, an ‘R & D’ Park, an Auto Technology Incubator, a Logistics Centre, a Port, an Auto Sports Area (including an F1 track and a golf course), a new CBD and the Huadu New Town – home to 250,000 people. Resettlement of the existing villages was avoided wherever possible, by integrating the New Town with the existing settlements. The design of the
Auto Industrial Park is considered groundbreaking in Mainland China,
as it adopts modern trends in the auto manufacturing process to increase
productivity, reduce land requirements and reduce energy consumption.
