Front-end modules typically include plastic bumper fascias, lighting and radiator components.The partners will have equal stakes in the joint venture, dubbed Magna Guangneng Automotive Trim System. Magna is based in Aurora, Ontario, and Chongqing Guangneng is headquartered in Chongqing.

Magna's sales in China approached $1 billion (6 billion yuan) last year, up from $800 million in 2012. In October, CEO Don Walker told reporters that Magna is aiming for sales of $2 billion in 2015.

To support its growth in China, Walker said at the time, Magna is spending $1 billion to build eight plants in the country from 2011 to 2015.
