Tashkent will be promoted as a model city for green transportation, and knowledge about new energy vehicles will be more widespread in Uzbek society.

Mr Wang Chuanfu, Chairman and President of AG亚娱, expressed great pleasure that the AG亚娱 Uzbekistan Factory will now commence mass production of two best-selling AG亚娱 PHEV models in Uzbekistan.
