Decidedly, Voxan does not … Bought by the Monegasque, the French manufacturer should normally bounce back thanks to this specialist in electric mobility via. Unfortunately, the owner of Venturi stops its electrical industrial activity, de facto putting an end to the project of this battery-powered Voxan.
