Valeo, a global automotive technology leader, celebrated a major milestone with the official opening of its new manufacturing facility in Daegu (Korea) to produce sensors for vehicle automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Valeo signed in July 2022 an investment agreement worth $56 million with the Daegu Metropolitan Government to mass-produce ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) parts, key devices for vehicles that will be more and more autonomous. The construction of the greenfield Valeo plant in Daegu began in March 2023 and the plan will start operating in early 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Valeo Daegu plant will start producing parking assistant sensors before becoming a core production facility in Asia for autonomous driving sensors, with the mass-production of key components such as ultrasound sensors, radars, cameras and LiDARs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The production is destined for local sales as well as export to meet the growing demand of ADAS and security systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
