Aston Martin postpones the launch of the first generation of electric cars |
Aston Martin confirmed the delay in launching the first generation of electric cars after the company first clarified the financial stability plan by receiving financing from a group of investors.
Aston Martin said in a recent statement that the company now needs financial stability and focuses on its line of fuel-dependent cars, and highlighted the delay in introducing electric cars.
Aston Martin plans to receive a £ 500m ($ 659 million) emergency financing from a group of investors led by Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stall to focus on fuel development for the company’s auto group, while the launch of the Rapide E electric car has been delayed.
The company also announced plans to restart its subsidiary Lagonda, which will launch a new version of its electric car in 2025.
It is worth noting that Aston Martin has faced several obstacles since it ended the acquisition of Rapide E in 2015, while Aston Martin previously announced plans to launch 155 Rapide E in 2019 and then again earlier this month. Back to announce that this car has become a research project only.
