Dana Motors Limited, a long-standing leader in Nigeria’s automotive industry, has announced its bold ambition to produce 18,000 electric vehicles annually at its expanding assembly facility, as part of its effort to support a cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable future.
This move, according to Dana Motors, reinforces the company’s position at the forefront of sustainable mobility and green technology adoption in the country.
Dana Motors’ ultra-modern assembly plant, currently undergoing a major expansion, is being retooled to meet growing demand for eco-friendly vehicles, in line with global automotive trends and Nigeria’s national sustainability goals.
With a strong legacy spanning over two decades, Dana Motors said it continues to demonstrate innovation and resilience in driving the transition to clean transportation in Africa’s largest economy.
Dana Motors boasts a versatile and growing fleet — including luxury electric vehicles, smart CNG-powered buses, and a robust lineup of durable, fuel-efficient sedans and SUVs. The company explained that the expansion drive is to contribute significantly to the country’s GDP through job creation.
Jacky Hathiramani, Dana Motors Limited CEO said, “This expansion will not only increase vehicle output but also contribute significantly to local job creation, technology transfer, and capacity building across the value chain.”
He added, “Our investment in training, local talent, and cutting-edge technology reflects our vision to support Nigeria’s journey towards a greener, more inclusive transport future. We are proud to align with national climate objectives while continuing to offer Nigerians modern, reliable, and affordable mobility solutions.”
As a certified CNG conversion center, Dana Motors continues to lead the way in providing practical alternatives to traditional fossil fuels—offering vehicles that lower emissions, reduce operating costs, and enhance air quality in urban areas.
Driven by a commitment to sustainability, innovation, and local empowerment, Dana Motors is not merely assembling vehicles—it is building a cleaner, more sustainable future for Nigeria.
