British electric drive (eDrive) specialist Saietta Group has received an order for 3,000 electric drive units from Ayro, the US-based low-speed electric vehicle (LSEV) company.
With deliveries commencing in Q3CY23, the eDrive units will power the new Ayro Vanish meant for campus mobility, last-mile delivery, and micro-distribution. Over the last 12 months, the eDrive company has worked closely with the vehicle maker to design, engineer, test, and validate a bespoke eDrive.
Speed to market is key for OEMs as lightweight mobility rapidly transitions to electric propulsion globally, noted Tony Gott, Executive Chairman, Saietta Group.
He said, “With significant growth anticipated across the final mile delivery sector globally, today’s order reinforces that there is a clear demand for our products and services around the world, including in the US.”
As per Tom Wittenschlaeger, CEO, Ayro, Saietta is the natural eDrive partner for AYRO. He said, “Over the last year, we have been impressed by Saietta’s innovation, flexibility, and engineering pace. We believe their eDrive solution, amongst numerous other class-leading innovations, will put us best-in-class in our segment.”
