KPSNC, a joint venture of Rheinmetall and Chinese automotive parts supplier HUAYU Automotive Systems (HASCO), has received an order for EV transmission housings totaling at least 100 million euros ($104.5 million). Rheinmetall says the order was placed by a US automaker that maintains a large production facility in Shanghai. After production begins at the end of 2022, the order for millions of housings will take six years to completely fulfill.  

The aluminum alloy housings will be produced through the pressure casting method at a facility in Shanghai and will be used in two of the automaker’s models.
