This decision highlights the state\u2019s role as a key hub in the country\u2019s push toward sustainable transportation and technological innovation.<\/p>\n<p>During the \u201cMa\u00f1anera del Pueblo,\u201d Sheinbaum emphasized that Puebla\u2019s governor provided significant support and facilitation for the project, making it the ideal location for the battery assembly plant. This move aligns with the broader strategy to develop the Olinia electric vehicle line, which recently unveiled its first model on Sunday, May 31, 2026, with a second model expected to debut by mid-June.<\/p>\n<p>Key points from Sheinbaum\u2019s announcement include:<br \/>\n&#8211; The battery assembly plant will stay in Puebla, close to where auto parts are produced, ensuring logistical efficiency.<br \/>\n&#8211; A public tender will open soon to invite private companies to invest in the production line, aiming to manufacture at least 20,000 Olinia vehicles.<br \/>\n&#8211; The project envisions a mixed investment model to accelerate production and market availability.  <\/p>\n<p>Beyond the Olinia electric cars, Sheinbaum also shared plans to announce other Mexican-led scientific projects throughout 2026, including advances in semiconductors, new hemodialysis treatments, and drone technology \u2014 all developed by local researchers.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative builds on earlier developments reported on May 17, 2026, when Celina Pe\u00f1a Guzm\u00e1n, Undersecretary of Technological Development, Innovation, and Linkage at the federal SECIHTI, revealed Puebla\u2019s ambition to host the final four manufacturing stages of the Olinia. The first three stages\u2014design, assembly, and battery production\u2014have already taken place in Puebla, particularly in San Jos\u00e9 Chiapa, known as the Capital of Technology and Sustainability, where the batteries are currently stored.<\/p>\n<p>For migrants and tech-savvy Millennials interested in Mexico\u2019s green future, this project signals a growing commitment to sustainable industry and innovation, with Puebla positioned as a strategic player in the country\u2019s electric vehicle ecosystem. The collaboration between government and private sectors also reflects a modern approach to economic development that values local expertise and environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mexico\u00b4s President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo confirmed that the company assembling batteries for the Mexican electric car Olinia will remain in Puebla.
