How do car factories adapt?

Transforming a factory like Bentley's Crewe site to produce electric vehicles requires significant investment, as seen with the £350m injection. This money goes into new machinery, training for workers, and reconfiguring production lines to handle batteries and electric motors, securing jobs and ensuring the UK remains a hub for car manufacturing.
