It is always good news that there are plans for the future for any Spanish factory. For us, even more so if it falls within the automotive sector and if we take into account that it is from a firm of national origin.

The goal is to adapt to current times and be able to produce parts for new generation electric that SEAT and Cupra will bring from 2025. The first to arrive will be the production version of the Cupra UrbanRebel, seated on the MEB platform and with a fairly contained size of 4.03 meters.

Being a team leader Formula 1 it is a very complicated task. Managing the drivers and the performance of the car is a tedious job that deserves a commensurate financial reward.
