Energica will add a new 12,370 square foot (1,150 square meter) facility dedicated to Energica Inside, research and development, and prototype development and testing.

"From the beginning, Energica has been a crucial leader in Italy regarding EV recruitment and innovation," says Livia Cevolini, CEO of Energica Motor Company.

At Energica's research and development center, the company's expert teams continue progressing on the design and implementation of advanced EV technologies with the support of Ideanomics.
