An electric car model which, according to announcements, will be produced in Kragujevac, should come off the production line at the end of 2024, RTK said.

Earlier this year, local media reported that the electric version of Citroen’s C3 model will be produced in Serbia.

SeeNews noted that, in April 2022, Stellantis and Serbia signed a deal to jointly invest EUR190m (US$207.8m) to produce EVs in Kragujevac.

FCA owns 67% of the share capital of FCA Serbia and the government holds the remainder.
