Vauxhall Vauxhall Vauxhall Vauxhall Vauxhall Vauxhall V According to the BBC, Vauxhall’s owner could announce plans to construct electric vans at its Ellesmere Port plant in Cheshire as soon as next week. Approximately 1,000 factory jobs would be saved as a result of the initiative, which is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of pounds. Vauxhall’s parent company, Stellantis, has cancelled plans to construct a new Astra model there, putting the plant’s future in jeopardy. Nissan said this week that its Sunderland facility will produce new electric vehicles. Stellantis has been in talks with the UK government over the location for several months and is rumored to be looking for financial backing for its plans. As a result of increasing home delivery sales, van sales have soared throughout the pandemic. Making vans isn’t particularly glamorous, but it makes a lot of sense right now. While the epidemic has had a negative impact on car sales, the home delivery boom has increased demand for smaller business cars. Because of the financial benefits, fleet operators are increasingly shifting to low-emission solutions. It provides a suitable balance for Carlos Tavares, Stellantis’ pragmatic and vocal CEO. He has been critical of the UK government’s plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel automobiles by 2030, claiming that they will undermine his company’s business model in the UK. Now there’s a new business model in place, and given that Mr Tavares previously stated that future production in the UK will be contingent on government support, it’s likely that taxpayer assistance will be included. Stellantis owns Peugeot, Fiat, and Chrysler, and is the world’s fifth-largest automaker. Since the UK and other European governments announced a ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030, the push for electric vehicle manufacture has accelerated. Nissan announced a huge expansion of electric vehicle production at its Sunderland plant on Thursday, which will result in the creation of 1,650 new jobs. The Japanese automaker will produce its next-generation all-electric model at the facility as part of a £1 billion investment that will support thousands of jobs in the supply chain. Envision AESC, Nissan’s partner, will construct an electric battery facility. Manufacturing at Ellesmere Port Vauxhall Motors is a British car manufacturer.
