Fernandes said the facility is expected to be ready in two years time with construction starting next month.
"I think we are moving in the right direction with progress being very fast," he told reporters on the sidelines of the ongoing Forbes Global CEO Conference in Kuala Lumpur.
He said the facilities at the FI centre can be used by all local car manufacturers for testing purposes.
Fernandes expects the centre to be profitable in the first year of its operations.
