Great News for Ellesmere Port

Vauxhall to invest millions in electric van manufacturing.

The future of Vauxhall's Ellesmere Port car plant is set to be secured through production of a new electric vehicle, with an announcement possible as soon as next week.

Ministers have been in talks with Vauxhall owner Stellantis for months over providing government support for the plant, and Sky News understands the manufacturer has signed off plans to continue production in the North West.

Re: Great News for Ellesmere Port

I wouldn't describe it as "great news" - but at least it's not bad news and there's a lot to be said for that IMHO.

After Nissan's news I'm waiting for JLR's announcement which, with luck, should be far more positive.
We are allegedly due an announcement of huge investment and another battery gigafactory, this time at Coventry Airport while Jaguar Land Rover are also reported to be still investing substantially in hydrogen fuel cell development too.
