A Mexican government-led project to design and build a fully electric car in Mexico is getting off the ground, officials say.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says a prototype of the car will be unveiled next month, and officials say the vehicles are set to go into production next year.
Mexico is calling the line of electric vehicles Olinia, which means “to move” in Mexico’s Indigenous Nahuatl language.
Sheinbaum announced Mexico’s plans for the cars last year. Officials say the small, fully electric passenger cars are designed to be affordable and accessible to a domestic market — in a country where assembling cars for foreignmanufacturers is big business.
