Troubled battery maker files for Chapter 11 protection in the US
Without more sustained support for a domestic battery supply chain, OEMs will vote with their feet, parliamentarians warn
A key figure in the party favoured to win the UK's next election promises the country's EV automaking industry more effective government support going forward. But will it be in time to stop a manufacturer exodus?
