Indian ride-hailing app Ola to open electric car facility in Coventry,UK
Ola has announced plans to invest £100m in the UK to open a research and development facility for a planned electric car, in a significant boost to the British automotive industry. Ola launched its taxi app that rivals Uber in cities including London, Birmingham and Cardiff in 2018, but it is pushing into electric vehicles with a recently launched road-going scooter and a planned electric car.
The new facility will be based in Coventry, the traditional West Midlands centre of the UK automotive industry. It will create 200 jobs in design and engineering. Workers at the plant will also research battery technology.
