Pinifarina cancels contract manufacturing to focus on electric vehicles |
In an announcement, Pininfarina said it would not seek a new contract manufacturing orders after the present contracts terminate at the close of 2011. Currently, Pininfarina is making the Alfa Romeo Brera coupe and Spider and the Ford Focus coupe-cabriolet in numbers that are about a quarter of what was initially intended. Pininfarina will begin pilot production in 2010 and in 2011 the volume manufacture of the B0, an electric vehicle designed and created in joint venture with French industrial group Bollore.
