Vauxhall has announced plans to build electric vans in the UK

The video discusses Vauxhall's transition to producing electric vehicles at Ellesmere Port, supported by a £100 million investment, including £30 million from the government. This shift is part of a broader trend in the automotive industry, driven by economic viability and the need to comply with future bans on petrol and diesel vehicles. The UK is working to catch up in battery production, with new gigafactories planned. The transformation is also influenced by the rise of e-commerce, which demands electrified delivery fleets to reduce emissions. Other companies like Nissan, BMW, and Jaguar Land Rover are also committing to electric vehicle production in the UK.
