Frozen

BMW has frozen a £600m investment to electrify the Mini Plant in Oxford due to a slower-than-expected take-up of electric vehicles. The plans included bringing back an electric Mini hatch and starting production in 2026, but uncertainties in the automotive industry have led to a review of the timeline.
