Vauxhall: No further Ellesmere Port investment until Brexit outcome decided

Production of electric and hybrid cars will not be introduced to Ellesmere Port until the outcome of Brexit is decided, Vauxhall's parent company has warned. Carlos Tavares, chief of Groupe PSA, said that investment could not be ploughed into the Cheshire plant before the political situation becomes clearer. Speaking to ITV News, Mr Tavares argued that the introduction of electric cars would represent a 'very big' business decision for PSA. He also offered his own opinion that a no-deal Brexit scenario would be a 'disaster' for both Britain and continental Europe.
