Everrati Automotive Limited (Everrati), the leading global technology company specializing in the redefining and futureproofing of automotive icons, today announces a new partnership between Everrati Advanced Technologies (EAT) and Hobson Industries Limited, providing its industry-leading EV expertise in the production of electrified Land Rover vehicles.
