Spanish firm revved up on Chinese auto sector amid green revolution

Gestamp, a Spanish automotive component manufacturing and design company, will further expand its footprint in the Chinese market by better addressing the industry transition toward electrification and the demand for more cost-efficient vehicles, said the company's top management.

They made the comments during the ongoing 20th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition — better known as Auto Shanghai. The exhibition kicked off on Tuesday and will run until April 27.

As part of the company's efforts to meet changing market demand in China, Gestamp launched two technologies at Auto Shanghai for the Chinese market — a second-generation power door and an "active frunk" (frontal trunk) solution specially designed for electric vehicles.
