Stellantis plans to close its Luton van factory in April 2025, risking 1,100 jobs, while investing £50 million into the Ellesmere Port plant for electric vans.
The closure is part of Stellantis' strategy to shift focus towards zero-emission vehicle production as pressure mounts on UK car manufacturers.
A government spokesperson affirmed ongoing partnership with Stellantis, emphasizing collaboration with trade unions and local partners for future proposals.
The government is investing over £300m to promote zero-emission vehicles and £2bn to aid the transition in domestic manufacturing.
