  • Dendrobium commits to U.K. manufacture

    29 Oct 2018

    British electric hypercar maker Dendrobium Automotive Limited has reaffirmed that it is looking to manufacture its D-1 hypercar in Great Britain.


    Following industrialist Sir James Dyson's controversial announcement that his new electric car will be built in Singapore, in contrast the new British electric hypercar maker Dendrobium Automotive Limited has reaffirmed that it is looking to manufacture its game-changing all-electric D-1 hypercar in Great Britain.

    Ironically the Dendrobium D-1 was initially conceived by the Singapore-based battery technology company Vanda Electrics, but as the South East Asian island has no history or expertise in vehicle manufacture, the electric transportation design specialists turned to the U.K. for its renowned know-how and prowess to fully develop and engineer the all-electric D-1 hypercar, initially with the support and proven capabilities of the celebrated Formula One company Williams Advance Engineering.

    Following its recent show-stealing U.K. debut at Salon Prive within the stunning surroundings of Blenheim Palace, the now fully-British Dendrobium Automotive is looking to manufacture its all-electric D-1 in the U.K. despite the current challenges and uncertainties continuing to be created around Brexit.

    Despite these Brexit concerns, Dendrobium Automotive's aim is to manufacture its technically advanced electric D-1 in the U.K. and keep the technology development intellectual property and supply chain in Britain to help sustain and create new jobs and opportunities.
