Boris will be pleased, now, I think I said on another post that this vehicle was refreshingly new take on the humble delivery Van, and I stand by it too.Hope the production vehicles are super efficient and keep those cute looks.Why should the contract be worth “hundreds of millions of euros” when it will actually be worth worth “hundreds of millions of pounds” - who writes this rubbish?The car industry is global, for those based in the UK most of the parts supply comes from Europe so the industry uses Euros as the default currency.That's happened over the last 40 years, Aston Martin and Morgan are the only UK-owned (kinda) automakers left.We're starting from scratch now we're leaving the EU, sure.But then we've done it before, we'll do it again.

Purpose Built Vehicles of any weight, type, size and shape are produced from Arrival’s platforms and assembled by microfactories. UPS have the option to purchase a further order of 10,000 vehicles during this period. In theory, that means those micro-factories could be located near the UPS hubs where the delivery vans will be used.
