The estimate is that the electric vehicle and battery pack factory in MG will begin construction in June 2021 and start operations in 2023. The estimated production for 2024 is 22,790 vehicle units and 43,750 battery pack units. The investment from the MG government and Bravo Motor is expected to be completed by the end of 2029. A cooperation protocol was also signed between Bravo and the Brazilian Agency for the Promotion of Exports and Investments (Apex) to support these actions.

The investment manager at Apex, Roberto Escoto, highlighted the importance of working together to attract good investments to the state.

“Indi has an extremely professional and proactive team, and we have been working in intense partnership. Minas has been a reference for other states. Apex understands that attracting foreign investments is much more effective when we have this level of integration that we have achieved with the state of Minas Gerais. There is no doubt that this investment is innovative, will generate a large number of qualified jobs, and will transfer technology to the entire country,” he stated.

The company ArqBravo Group started operating in 2008 in Argentina. In 2019, it created an energy community for battery production, solar roofs, and vehicles in California. In Brazil, it has electric mobility projects in Pará, with a fleet of 1,100 electric vehicles in Belém.
