The transition to electrified transport requires more than innovative vehicles. It also requires the industrial capabilities to bring them to scale. ⚡🏭 Our brand Scania Group plans to invest EUR 70 million in its production site in Angers, France, strengthening its capacity to support the transition to electrified transport in Europe. The investment includes an extension of the existing facility and the adaptation of assembly lines for electric truck production. 🚛🔋 “This investment reflects our ambition to secure the long-term future of the Angers site while increasing its flexibility. We are preparing for the future, but we must remain able to adapt to changing volumes and market dynamics,” says Petrus Sundvall, President of Scania Production Angers. As Christian Levin, CEO of TRATON GROUP, emphasizes: “The transition to electrified transport is not only about vehicles. It is about creating the conditions that enable transport operators to invest with confidence.” Achieving Europe’s climate ambitions will require coordinated action across the entire transport ecosystem, from vehicle manufacturers and transport operators to energy providers, infrastructure developers and policymakers. 🌍⚡ Across the #TRATONGROUP, we continue to invest in the technologies, industrial capabilities, and partnerships needed to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable transport system. Strengthening electric truck production capacity is another important step in creating a transport ecosystem that is both more sustainable and more competitive. 🌱🚚 #Electrification #SustainableTransport #FutureOfTransport #TransformingTransportationTogether
