  • Why Spain will be the largest BEV producer in 2030

    Why Spain will be the largest BEV producer in 2030
    The European country where the most 100% electric vehicles are expected to be produced in 2030 will not be France or Germany, but Spain. In fact, most automakers have announced their plans for the next five to six years regarding the production of vehicles in Spain with this type of propulsion, and we can see that they are numerous :
    1. Zaragoza: production plant for the new Opel e-Corsa, Peugeot e-208, Lancia e-Ypsilon.
    2. Villaverde: production site for the Citroën e-C4 and e-C4 X.
    3. Vitoria: production site for Mercedes e-Vito.
    4. Vigo: production site for Peugeot e-2008. Citroën e-Berlingo, Peugeot e-Partner, Opel e-Combo and their Toyota derivatives moved to the Ellesmere Port site in the UK.
    5. Martorell: Production site for the future Volkswagen ID1/ID2 and their Skoda,Cupra and Audi derivatives.
    6. Valencia: Possible production site for future Ford electric vehicles.
    7. Pamplona: No electric models are currently planned.
    The Martorell plant alone is planned to produce 500,000 electric vehicles per year. In total,Spain could produce 1.5 million electric vehicles in 2030, accounting for half of its automotive production, while Germany could produce 1.3 million and France 0.8 million electric vehicles at the same time.
