Chief Executive Officer

RE: Government Procurement; Country of
Origin of Electric Vehicles; Substantial
Transformation
Dear Mr. Harrison:
This is in response to your letter, dated
March 16, 2011, as amended April 6, 2011,
and April 7, 2011, requesting a final
determination on behalf of Azure Dynamics
(Azure), pursuant to subpart B of 19 C.F.R.
part 177.
Under these regulations, which implement
Title III of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979,
as amended (19 U.S.C. 2511 et seq.), U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issues
country of origin advisory rulings and final
determinations as to whether an article is or
would be a product of a designated country
or instrumentality for the purpose of granting
waivers of certain ‘‘Buy American’’
restrictions in U.S. law or practice for
products offered for sale to the U.S.
Government.
This final determination concerns the
country of origin of the Transit Connect
Electric Vehicle (TCE). We note that Azure,
the U.S. importer and manufacturer, is a
party-at-interest within the meaning of 19
C.F.R. 177.22(d)(1) and is entitled to request
this final determination under 19 C.F.R.
177.23(a).
FACTS:
Azure purchases and imports a Transit
Connect glider from Turkey. A glider is a
non-functional base without a powertrain or
exhaust components, and consists of a frame,

PO 00000

Frm 00060

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

body, axles, and wheels. The TCE is then
assembled in the U.S. from both imported
and U.S.-origin components.
A Bill of Materials was submitted with the
request. Apart from the glider, parts for the
TCE are also imported from Switzerland,
Hungary, Japan, Germany, Canada, the
United Kingdom, and various other
countries. According to the submission, the
TCE vehicle is composed of 31 components,
of which 14 are of U.S.-origin. For purposes
of this decision, we assume that the
components of U.S. origin are produced in
the U.S. or are substantially transformed in
the U.S. and considered products of the U.S.
The U.S. assembly occurs at various
stations. The assembly stations at AM
General, the manufacturing subcontractor,
are described as follows:
Station 0: A visual quality inspection of the
glider is performed and the materials
necessary for assembly are delivered to the
proper stations.
Station 1: A Vehicle Identification Number
is assigned. Holes are drilled into the glider
and brackets are installed to support the
battery pack and other electric assembly
components. The fuel door of the glider is
removed, assembled into a charge port, and
the charge port is installed. The cab wiring
harnesses and instrument clusters are
removed and replaced with U.S. origin cab
wiring harnesses and Hungarian instrument
clusters appropriate for electric vehicles. The
low-voltage battery is removed.
Station 2: A U.S.-origin battery pack, U.S.
engine bay wiring harness, German power
steering pump and motor, German battery
coolant pump heater, and Turkish power
steering lines are installed. Four
subassemblies, which previously are
assembled at four substations using certain
U.S. and foreign components, are also
assembled and installed: Cooling pack
subassembly, hoses assembly, high voltage
junction box assembly, and traction
assembly.
The cooling pack subassembly involves the
removal of the condenser from the radiator
included with the glider and the replacement
of the radiator included with glider with a
Canadian radiator that is compatible with
electric vehicles. U.S. hoses are then
installed onto the radiator.
The hoses subassembly involves measuring
and cutting U.S.-origin coolant hoses and
installing U.S.-origin hoses clips to the hoses.
The high voltage junction box subassembly
involves integrating a Canadian active
discharge unit with various U.S. and foreign
origin vent plugs, mounting studs, internal
harnesses, fuses and a fuse holder, and
various cables.
The traction subassembly involves the
assembly of a U.S. origin motor controller
(manufactured by Azure at a different plant
and referred to as the Force Drive electric
powertrain), a U.S. origin gearbox, a German
electric motor, a German origin vacuum
pump, a Swiss charger, a Japanese AC
compressor, and a Japanese DC–DC
converter.
Station 3: Multiple quality control
inspections are performed. Various brackets,
gaskets, nuts and bolts, and cords and wires
are installed. The original-low voltage battery
