Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing (IVM) is Nigeria’s first indigenous automobile manufacturer, specializing in the production of commercial and passenger vehicles tailored for the African market. The company is committed to reducing reliance on imported vehicles while driving industrial growth and employment opportunities within Nigeria. With a focus on innovation and sustainability, IVM is integrating electric and energy-efficient vehicle technologies into its production line to minimize environmental impact.
