Why General Motors is keeping its faith in Luton: Britain's oldest automotive plant is now the centre of the country's commercial vehicle-making industry

摘要

Britain's longest-running automotive factory is General Motors' Vauxhall facility in Luton, where vehicles have been built continually since 1905. It may not build cars any more, but the 35-hectare site is now the jewel in the crown of Britain's commercial vehicle-making industry. This comes as the result of a ￡168 million investment to build a new generation of the Vivaro van, guaranteeing the plant's future until at least 2025.
