Ford could sell one of its German plants to China-based BYD
off the assembly line is the Focus. About 4,600 employees still work there, but production is scheduled to end in 2025 without a direct successor. Ford's decision to idle the plant drew a dark cloud of disapproval from German unions, and officials claim that the company pledged to keep up to 700 people employed after car production ends in 2025 by using the plant to build unspecified components.
BYD has already established a foothold in Europe, though it's far from being a household name. In 2017, it opened a factory in Komárom, Hungary, that builds electric buses and carries out research and development activities. It's too early to tell what it would do with Ford's Saarlouis plant; it could build cars, buses, or something else entirely.
