Dyson, which you currently know from making vacuum cleaners, will build its new electric car in Singapore. That"s today"s announcement, which comes just over two months after Dyson said it would develop the vehicle on a purpose-built test track in Wiltshire. Details of the plan are still reasonably scarce, but according to the Financial Times, Dyson will spend 2bn developing battery technology and car construction. Apparently the UK had been mooted as a factory location, but Dyson went with Singapore because it"s already a company manufacturing hotspot and it"s closer to customers and production hubs". According to the FT, Dyson is bullish that Brexit isn"t to blame for taking the EV"s manufacture overseas. However, it has been pointed out that Singapore already has lucrative trade agreements with China and a pending deal with the EU that the UK, needless to say, does not.
