Production is being carried out under a contract manufacturing agreement between Sinotruk and Steyr Automotive. The first vehicle was completed in early March 2026. The facility will produce a variety of commercial vehicle configurations, including both diesel-powered trucks and all-electric models.

The initial phase of production utilizes the SKD (Semi-Knocked Down) method, where partially pre-assembled components are shipped from China to Austria for final assembly. However, as production volumes scale, the partners plan to transition to CKD (Completely Knocked Down) manufacturing. In this phase, vehicles would be built entirely from individual parts at the Steyr facility.

This next step would integrate additional manufacturing stages—such as cab fabrication and painting—directly at the site, significantly increasing local content and regional value creation.
