EV Technology Group has entered into terms with MEPC Silverstone Park, securing a 90,000ft2 industrial lease at the British motoring site.
The new facility comprises EV Technology Group’s EV Centre of Excellence, which has been constructed by MEPC and forms part of MEPC’s latest 265,000ft2 development at Silverstone Park.
The new facility has been designed to enable EV Technology Group and its subsidiaries to rapidly expand EV manufacturing and assembly capacity.
Wouter Witvoet, CEO and founder of EV Technology Group, said: “The site’s location puts us in the heart of the booming UK EV industry, and will allow us to scale manufacture and assembly of electric brands such as the iconic Moke”.
The announcement follows the recent announcement of the proposed acquisition by EV Technology Group of Fablink Group Holdings, a tier one contract manufacturer in the UK.
Fablink operates its ‘Streamline Automotive’ division, which services the UK for contract vehicle assembly services, including in the EV sector.
As EV Technology Group looks to expand its portfolio of brands, the new facility will be home to the company’s EV engineering and development hub and provide facilities for Streamline Automotive for vehicle assembly and finishing.
