A BYD assembly plant, joining two other planned factories in Hungary and Turkey, would be a significant boost for the carmaker that competes with Tesla, and would also bolster Spain's aim of becoming a major hub for electric vehicle production.

Automakers in the world's No. 2 economy are locked in relentless price wars that are deepening deflationary pressures, while fears of a flood of cheap Chinese cars have sparked trade tensions with key partners — strain the export-driven economy can ill-afford amid U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs.
