UK-based small volume sportscar manufacturer AC Cars is expanding its production operations thanks to a new strategic partnership with Swedish company T-Engineering as it continues to invest en route to delivery of its AC Cobra GT range of sports cars.
Based in Trollhättan in Sweden, T-Engineering will help AC Cars meet demand for its AC Cobra GT Roadster and GT Coupe. In addition to production facilities, the partnership will also provide AC Cars with specific engineering functions as it looks to further develop its range of vehicles.
T-Engineering offers a complete development center for automotive – its Swedish site is fully equipped for the development and full-scale testing of vehicles and systems. In addition to the team, engine laboratories, assembly spaces and other elements, the agreement also includes access to the T Legacy Track – a test facility that provides a wide range of calibration and validation services.
Joining AC Cars’ existing production facility on the UK’s south coast and its engineering division in Germany, the Trollhättan facility is the latest component in the production of the company’s sports cars.
Speaking of the announcement, David Conza, CEO of AC Cars, said, “It’s an honor to be partnering with T-Engineering, and the relationship will give AC Cars access to a world class team and facilities that will not only boost the production of the AC Cobra GT range but also help development of vehicles going forward.”
