  Founder and Chief Executive Officer

  We design, assemble, develop, manufacture, and sell high-performance fully electric vehicles and advanced electric vehicle powertrain components. We have intentionally departed from the traditional automotive industry model by exclusively focusing on the following: Energy Management System, Battery Packing, Hub Motor, electric powertrain technology and owning our vehicle sales and service network.We are the first in South Africa and currently not the only company to commercially produce a federally-compliant highway-capable electric vehicle, the Zbee RS & Zbee Cargo, which combines a market-leading range on a single charge with attractive design, driving performance and zero tailpipe emissions.Introducing the Zbee required us to develop a proprietary electric system that incorporates four key components—an advanced battery pack, power electronics module, high-efficiency motor and extensive control software - all of which we are still working on which we aim to launch commercially into the market. We believe our core intellectual property contained within our electric powertrain will form the foundation for our planned future electric vehicles. Scooter is a gateway to supply electric mobility throughout the African continent. It’s a strategic position that makes it ideal to scale and expand rapidly throughout Africa and potentially, the globe.Our approach is beyond creating a market for this one product as it also includes a long-term vision where we intend on producing commercial and passenger vehicles Made in Africa for the world to consume.
