Dutch solar EV startup Lightyear has officially started production of its first vehicle, the Lightyear 0, at manufacturing partner Valmet Automotive's facility in Uusikaupunki, Finland.
That is a remarkable achievement, but it's far from what one would call volume production as the company is producing only one car a week for the time being. It does plan to gradually scale up production in the first quarter of 2023, although it doesn't say how many Lightyear 0 vehicles per week it plans to make by then.
