Countries drawing investments of electric car manufacturers will be the “winners” of the new economic world order, Peter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, said.

Announcing the expansion of a plant of South Korean Sang-A Frontec, which manufactures plastic parts for electric car batteries, Szijjártó said South Korean companies are the fourth largest group of investors in Hungary.

Bilateral trade jumped by 37% last year to nearly 7 billion dollars, he said.

The 10 billion forint (EUR 26.7m) investment in Szada, near Budapest, has received a 1.4 billion forints in government grant, and will create 55 jobs, he said.
