Speeding Up

Reimagining the automotive industry's future: It's now or never

Faster Time to Market

At the core of our strategy is the recognition that development times and costs are paramount. We're leveraging proven components intelligently and prioritizing modularity to reduce both. Our plug-and-play approach is set to revolutionize industry standards, significantly cutting time-to-market.

​

We firmly believe that true sustainability necessitates designing electric vehicles from scratch. That's why why our upcoming  low-floor platform is setting the stage for a greener future.

​

Our protected packaging allows seamless integration of future technological advancements without the necessity for chassis redesign.

​

Accelerating time-to-market while maintaining flexibility for future innovations

The CF1 was an early prototype to test ergonomic concepts. MANOVO  is different and offers much more– it’s an entirely new, modular and software-defined commercial vehicle platform for RVs, Last-Mile, Shuttle Buses, Food Trucks, Emergency Response and more -modular to fit to your needs.

Clean Environment, Safe and Easy Access

Last-mile operations, home deliveries, shuttle services, RVs, and emergency vehicles all have unique demands that traditional platforms fail to address.

The upcoming MANOVO chassis combines the spaciousness of a box truck with the agility of a cargo van, offering best-in-class payload capacity across multiple sectors. It introduces segment-leading innovations such as a heat pump-based thermal management system, enhancing energy efficiency and driving range for delivery fleets, passenger transport, mobile services, and specialty vehicles alike.
