There have been many twists since Nevs bought up the majority of Saab's bankruptcy estate in 2012.
The Trollhättan company has had major economic troubles in recent years, while the parent company – the Chinese real estate giant Evergrande Group – has been in crisis and earlier this year went into liquidation.
Nevs laid off 300 people as early as 2021 and was put into hibernation in February last year, while another approximately 300 people were laid off.
One year ago, Nevs announced that it had sold two of its electric car projects. However, the deal with Canadian EV Electra fell through this spring, and now the remaining 20 employees are also being laid off.
According to CEO Nina Selander, there is still hope for the sale of the two electric car projects, Emily and Pons.
We are now working to sell Emily and Pons and to find solutions for the employees, even if it's under someone else's management, she says to TTELA.
We will fight to the very end to ensure that everyone lands on their feet. The final nail in the coffin has not been hammered in yet.
