Stellantis keeps UK plant to produce electric vehicles
LONDON "” European carmaker Stellantis on Tuesday said it was keeping its Vauxhall plant in northern England, which will become the group's first factory to produce a solely battery-electric vehicle.
It is pumping £100 million ($138 million, 117 million euros) into the facility, with help from the UK government, to produce electric light commercial vehicles and passenger vans, Stellantis said in a statement.
Stellantis, which was created in January via the merger of French giant PSA and Italian carmaker Fiat, has been mulling the future of Vauxhall's Ellesmere Port plant on the northwest English coast, which employs more than 1,000 staff.
