AC Cars is expanding its production operations thanks to a new strategic partnership with T-engineering, as it continues to invest for the delivery of the AC Cobra GT range of sports cars.

The next stage in a sustained programme of investment and further development, the collaboration with specialist T-engineering provides Britain's oldest operating vehicle manufacturer with greater capacity as it continues with its range of contemporary and classic vehicles.

Based at the famous Trollhattan facility in Sweden, the work will help AC Cars meet demand for its AC Cobra GT Roadster and GT Coupe. In addition to production facilities the partnership also provides specific engineering functions as the company looks to support further development for its range of vehicles.

Striving to be Scandinavia's leading development company for control systems and electrification, T-engineering is a world-class complete development centre for automotive, and its Swedish site is fully equipped for the development and full-scale testing of vehicles and systems.

T-engineering's experience and skills further strengthens AC Cars' production and development capability.

In addition to the team, engine laboratories, assembly spaces, and other elements available, the agreement includes access to the T Legacy Track - the well-known test facility in Trollhattan which provides a wide range of calibration and validation services.

Joining AC Cars' existing production facility on the UK's south coast, and the engineering division in Germany, the Trollhättan facility is the latest element in the production of the company's cutting edge sports cars.

Speaking of the announcement David Conza, CEO of AC Cars, said: "It's an honour to be partnering with T-engineering, and the relationship will give AC Cars access to a world class team and facilities that will not only boost the production of the AC Cobra GT range but also help development of vehicles going forward."

Klas Lundgren, CEO of T-engineering, said: "T-engineering is thrilled to cooperate with AC Cars and are honoured to be able to support the development of its new exciting cars and deliver manufacturing solutions for the future. We perfectly complement AC Cars and are convinced this is a fantastic commercial match for the future."

Speaking of the strategic partnership between AC Cars and T-engineering, Peter Eriksson, Mayor of the City of Trollhattan, said: ""We're delighted to welcome Britain's oldest active vehicle manufacturer, AC Cars, to Trollhättan. The partnership between AC Cars and T-engineering is a milestone that confirms that Trollhattan is an attractive location for both the automotive industry and a place for manufacturing companies of the future. We'll contribute to the next chapter in their journey and support the establishment in the Stallbacka Industrial Area."
