Bigger isn't always better.

For businesses developing new products or making changes, committing to large-scale production can be exactly the wrong choice.

By manufacturing in smaller quantities, you can bring new products to market faster, keeping that initial investment down and staying flexible.

Adjustments are easier as requirements evolve and smaller runs can be managed without disrupting existing production schedules.

We understand exactly when a smaller production run is right for a project.
If you need guidance on whether it's right for you, get in touch.

Bentley has become the latest major manufacturer to back UK production, announcing a £350 million investment at its Crewe site, where its new electric Torcal SUV will be built.

That announcement follows investment news of £500 million from McLaren and £170 million from Nissan - in a single week.

For those of us working in UK engineering, it's a very welcome show of confidence in UK skills, UK technology and UK manufacturing capability.

The automotive industry has always been an important showcase for British engineering expertise.

Investment on this scale into the sector is a welcome statement on its future.

Great news!

WHERE something is made could soon have an even bigger impact on what it costs.

FleetPoint magazine reports that European carmakers have called for a delay to tougher UK/EU rules of origin for EVs (currently due to come in January 2027).

The issue is that vehicles will need to contain a greater proportion of UK/EU produced content to qualify for tariff-free trade.

It highlights the engineering supply chain behind a finished EV and shows the risk of global volatility on tariffs and regulations.

Building greater capability closer to home requires the engineering expertise, capacity and suppliers needed throughout the supply chain.

The automotive industry needs to tap in to agile, UK-based manufacturing companies like ours, because local sourcing will help them avoid global volatility.

Do you think it's time the automotive sector started looking closer to home?

Are the latest SMMT EV stats good news or not?

Electric vans have just hit a record 16.3% of the UK LCV registrations.

Registrations rose by almost 26% compared with August last year.

But...

In the 1st 8 months of 2026, they accounted for 11% of registrations - vs the 24% Government target under their ZEV Mandate.

Businesses need vehicles that can reliably complete the job required of them, day after day.

Our focus in the sector is on providing vehicles that meet the needs of their role - engineered solutions for EVs.

The wider challenge on Government is creating the infrastructure, economics and regulatory environment to increase adoption.

What do you think needs to change to accelerate electric van adoption?

The Government's proposed plans to reduce the 2030 ZEV target come with a price tag.

The Government are consulting on a proposed reduction from 80% to 50% electric vehicles.

It has been welcomed by some who argue that the current targets don't reflect consumer demand - but others think that it will delay crucial EV infrastructure investment.

According to BEAMA's recent analysis it could result in:
- 1.7 million fewer home charge point installations by 2034,
- £1.56 billion in delayed revenue,
- 12GW of lost flexible grid capacity, and
- 71 million additional tonnes of lifetime CO2 emissions.

That's a major impact on the sector with far-reaching consequences for the entire EV supply chain - including the engineering businesses responsible for the drivetrains that make this transition possible.

What are your thoughts about the Government proposal?
Should the targets be maintained?

Which way will electric commercial vehicles go, BIG or small?

The stats are interesting:

In 2025, 587 new zero-emission HGVs were registered in the UK, up more than 170% on the previous year.

That sounds impressive, but those vehicles still represented just 1.4% of the new HGV market.

At the other end, smaller electric commercial vehicles are already being adopted in much greater numbers.

More than 30,000 battery electric vans were registered during 2025, up 36.2% year-on-year, although they still accounted for only 9.5% of the van market.

So where does the real opportunity lie?

It’s an interesting question for us at DEE because we’ve worked on niche EV drivetrain and vehicle engineering projects which started with the final need, rather than simply electrifying an existing vehicle.

Will battery and charging tech make large electric HGVs a practical choice for long-distance freight?

Or will we see more lightweight and nimble EVs?

Where do you think the growth will be?

£130 million is being invested into the next generation of UK automotive electrification - but this is about more than vehicle manufacturers.

The Government’s DRIVE35 programme is specifically focused on strengthening the wider UK automotive supply chain, increasing manufacturing capability and helping ZEV technologies move towards production at scale.

That wider recognition from the Government is key because we know only too well that every new EV component has to go from concept to reality, and that brings specialised challenges.

But they're just the kind of challenges we love.

We take projects from concept design and prototype development through to detailed engineering, component manufacture and low-volume assembly - bringing EV concepts to life.

The investment may be headline news for the automotive sector, but we're delighted to see recognition of the importance of the WHOLE EV supply chain.

What do you think?
Good news for UK Manufacturing?

How hot will it be in 30 years?

It sounds like a question for a climate scientist, but it’s becoming a question engineers need to consider too.

With record temperatures causing problems across European railways, Eurostar has reportedly upgraded the specification for its new trains (due to enter service from 203) so they can operate in temperatures of up to 55°C (up 10 degrees from current spec).

These trains are expected to have a working life of around 30 years, and the conditions they experience towards the end of that life could look very different from those they experience at the beginning.

It’s an interesting example of something engineers constantly have to consider - not only what conditions a product needs to withstand today, but what might reasonably be asked of it tomorrow?

When we design a product, we always consider the future needs, not just what the client's asking of us today.

The latest AA figures reveal an increase of 46% in UK private EV ownership over the past year - but we think the really impressive stuff sits behind that stat.

Every electric vehicle on the road started life as a concept.

Before the first production model rolled off the line, someone had to solve hundreds of engineering challenges.

How do you reduce weight without compromising strength? How do you package components into increasingly tight spaces? How do you improve efficiency and simplify manufacturing?

Those questions are answered on engineers' screens, in workshops, during prototype builds and countless design reviews... and as EV adoption grows, the demand for specialist engineering expertise grows with it.

We've been active in the EV engineering sector for years, bridging the gap between ideas and production-ready solutions.

The public sees the finished product, but we see the engineering that gets it there.

Need help with a project?
We're ready.

Getting a part to look right is one thing.
Getting it to perform reliably in the real world is another.

Every day, we turn concepts into components - and the drawing stage is critical.

Tolerances, finishes, dimensions and materials all get established - and the detailed drawing stage is where experience really matters.

Because for EV drivetrains, motorsport parts and low-volume specialist builds, there’s no room for guesswork.

Need a team who can take your napkin sketch and deliver a manufacturable, testable reality?
