The factory has never worked at a steady pace of 10,000 cars a month.
The plant started the year with a 200-car production per shift, and two shifts per day. Last week, the pace increased to 270-285 vehicles per shift, so the daily output was close to 600 units. This means there is an EcoSport leaving the assembly line every 87 seconds. In comparison, a Dacia assembles one car every 52 seconds in its Mioveni plant in Romania.
