Al parecer, BMW est\u00e1 negociando con el Ministerio brit\u00e1nico de Empresa, Energ\u00eda y Estrategia Industrial (BEIS) para recibir una subvenci\u00f3n de 75 millones de libras (unos 84,5 millones de euros) con el fin de continuar la producci\u00f3n del Mini el\u00e9ctrico en su planta de Cowley, a las afueras de Oxford.<\/p>\n
Esto se produce despu\u00e9s de que los medios brit\u00e1nicos informaran en Octubre<\/a>, que el fabricante de autom\u00f3viles alem\u00e1n podr\u00eda dejar de fabricar la versi\u00f3n el\u00e9ctrica en el Reino Unido por completo. Seguir\u00eda fabricando all\u00ed sus modelos convencionales y trasladar\u00eda su producci\u00f3n de VE a China a trav\u00e9s de su asociaci\u00f3n con Great Wall, mientras que el Countryman el\u00e9ctrico se construir\u00e1 en Leipzig, Alemania.<\/p>\n Este informe fue desmentido poco despu\u00e9s por los medios de comunicaci\u00f3n alemanes: En Noviembre<\/a>, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ)<\/em> escribi\u00f3 que BMW seguir\u00eda fabricando el Mini el\u00e9ctrico en el Reino Unido despu\u00e9s de todo, ya que los centros de producci\u00f3n de China y Alemania no eran suficientes por s\u00ed solos.<\/p>\n Adem\u00e1s, los modelos el\u00e9ctrico y convencional se basan actualmente en la misma plataforma, lo que hace posible construir ambas versiones en la planta de Cowley. Pero la versi\u00f3n el\u00e9ctrica de pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n se asentar\u00e1 sobre su propia plataforma desarrollada por Great Wall. La producci\u00f3n paralela en la planta de Cowley se consider\u00f3 durante mucho tiempo ineficiente y demasiado costosa, pero parece que BMW puede haber encontrado una soluci\u00f3n al problema.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Al parecer, BMW est\u00e1 negociando con el Ministerio brit\u00e1nico de Empresa, Energ\u00eda y Estrategia Industrial (BEIS) para recibir una subvenci\u00f3n de 75 millones de libras (unos 84,5 millones de euros) en<\/p>","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":182116,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9930],"tags":[3701,56,18117,368,6662,10032,2158],"class_list":["post-187733","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-automobile","tag-bev","tag-bmw","tag-cooper-se","tag-mini","tag-oxford","tag-subsidies","tag-uk"],"acf":{"inhalt_teil2":" According to Sky News<\/em>, who first reported on the alleged grant negotiations, the money would come from Whitehall’s Automotive Transformation Fund. Neither BMW nor the BEIS wanted to further comment on the issue. It is therefore unclear when the money would be released or when the Cowley plant would begin using it. Meanwhile, according to Sky News<\/em>, industry sources say a deal between the government and the carmaker could be finalized within weeks.<\/p>\n BMW currently makes around 40,000 electric Minis a year at its Oxfordshire plant, where the (conventional) Mini has been build since the 1950s.<\/p>\n In an interview with the BBC<\/em>, Nissan COO Ashwani Gupta said that the UK is becoming less attractive as a production location compared to other sites in Europe. He said that ongoing government support to carmakers to master the transition to more EVs was needed, as the UK is struggling with higher energy prices and inflation than other countries.<\/p>\n Nissan has already committed to building the successor to the Nissan Leaf at its plant in Sunderland. Whether the electric versions of the Juke and the Qashqai will also be produced there, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n sky.com<\/a>, bbc.com<\/a><\/p>\n"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=187733"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187733\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/182116"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=187733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=187733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electrive.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=187733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
