The Novo mesto-based plant which presently operates in two shifts, will add in December an extra half-shift during the night and plans to increase daily production from slightly over 600 to around 800 vehicles.

Currently, the company employs 2,400 people after it introduced another half-shift in the first half of the year.

Revoz said that following years of difficult conditions on the car market the recently launched serial production of the new Twingo and the production of the four-seat Smart are starting a more encouraging period that is accompanied by higher demand.
