In the future we also plan to manufacture electric vehicles (CS55 EV SUV and CS15 EV SUV)with 450 range.

The warranty period will be 3-5 years, while the battery warranty is 8 years, IGroup representatives noted.

“In 2020 the plant will manufacture 5 000 e-cars, while the output will rise to 40 000 cars in the coming years. The vehicles with the status of Made in Georgia will be exported to neighboring countries and Europe.

The vehicle prices will depend on the market realities. Leasing schemes will run for various consumer segments.
