In Genoa the first microfactory for custom-built electric cars

The first retail microfactory for custom-built electric cars branded by the Motors Grouping start app is born in Genoa. The project was presented at the Talent Garden, in the presence of the city councilor for economic development Mario Mascia. It will be built in Valpolcevera with an estimated investment of 6 million, the employment, at full capacity, of about twenty employees and the construction of a campus dedicated to innovative motoring and intelligent mobility and which aims to contribute to the ecological and industrial transition.

The Motors Grouping microfactory is structured around three main souls: a flexible production plant where skilled craftsmen meet the latest robotic technologies, artificial intelligence and 3D printing. The first car will be the 155eDtm Evoluzione, the first project built in 2022 by Motors Grouping. The microfactory will have a Car Design and Automotive Engineering center specializing in custom-built and racing which will develop a project called Forma Sport, a fully electric modular platform that can be used for racing cars intended for both track and off-road use. There will be an electric vehicle education center with an area dedicated to a workshop specializing in the preparation of racing cars. A real campus “This first microfactory is launched to respond to the great European challenge of energy transition – explained Jonny Lo Piscopo, CEO and founder of Motors Grouping – Many observers see a real risk of deindustrialization in this phase. Our response is to fundamentally rethink the way cars are manufactured today».

“Genoa is increasingly becoming a point of reference for start-ups aiming at sustainable development”, said Mascia
