Saietta Group, a British electric drive (eDrive) specialist, has received an order from Ayro, a US-based low-speed electric vehicle (LSEV) firm, for 3,000 electric drive units.
The eDrive units will power the new Ayro Vanish for campus mobility, last-mile delivery, and micro-distribution, with sales beginning in Q3CY23. Over the past year, the eDrive company has collaborated closely with the vehicle manufacturer to develop, engineer, test, and validate a custom eDrive.
According to Tony Gott, Executive Chairman of Saietta Group, “speed to market is critical for OEMs as lightweight mobility rapidly transitions to electric propulsion globally.”
“With significant growth anticipated across the global final mile delivery sector, today’s order reinforces that there is a clear demand for our products and services around the world, including in the United States,” he said.
According to Tom Wittenschlaeger, CEO of Ayro, Saietta is AYRO’s logical eDrive partner. “We have been impressed by Saietta’s innovation, flexibility, and engineering pace over the last year,” he said. We believe that their eDrive solution, along with numerous other class-leading innovations, will propel us to the top of our category.”
