VW's Kariega plant enters next phase of new budget SUV production
With the phase complete, the project has entered the commissioning stage. Over the coming weeks, new equipment will be brought online and tested during weekends to avoid interrupting the plant's normal three-shift operations.
The Tera project is being developed in collaboration with Volkswagen Brasil, and will see the two markets working closely to bring the model to production.
'We are happy to be back to normal production, with the knowledge we are one step closer to our future of building three models in our plant,' said VWGA production director Ulrich Schwabe.
'I would like to thank every employee who has played a part in the process of preparing for the future icon in our Volkswagen line-up, and I look forward to working with these colleagues, and our Brazilian counterparts, as we continue on the journey.'
