New UK company to build niche EVs in Cornwall and West Midlands | Autocar

Formation of new company Watt Electric Vehicles to bring two new EV factories and 500 jobs in UK

It is described as a 3.5-tonne 'cab and chassis unit' that can host a variety of bodystyles – including totally bespoke designs for niche use cases – on the rear. It will be offered with a choice of powertrains and batteries, and Watt has also confirmed a hydrogen fuel cell variant is under development.

Also based on PACES, the two-door, rear-wheel-drive sports EV is said to weight less than 1000kg, despite featuring a 40kWh battery good for a claimed 230 miles of range. It will also get from 0-62mph in just over 5.0sec, courtesy of a mid-mounted motor producing 161bhp.
