THE TECHNOLOGY OF TOMORROW.

A FRESH AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE

SEV U.S. Corp is an exciting combination of tried-and-true electric vehicle know-how and a fresh, American vision.

CEO, Bryan Hansel, an innovator and entrepreneur with a proven track record of bringing new technologies to the American market, will lead SEV-U.S. CORP.

Smith Electric Vehicles’ (UK) zero-emission trucks have a long history of reliability in Europe. We are bringing Smith’s proprietary know-how to the U.S. to integrate electric power trains, lithium ion battery packs and control systems into commercial truck chassis envelopes.

SEV U.S. will initially focus its production on plug-in battery electric trucks for depot-based route delivery fleets. It will be the first production of all-electric zero-emission commercial trucks in the United States.

Our operation will begin with truck chassis components and drive trains from Europe.

8 DECADES OF SUCCESS IN EUROPE

From day one, this American company has a legacy of success. The Tanfield Group Plc, owner of Smith Electric Vehicles (SEV-UK) is a partner. SEV-UK has been making electric vehicles since the 1920’s and currently is the largest manufacturer of on–road electric commercial vehicles in the world.

A LONGTERM PARTNERSHIP WITH FORD

SEV UK already has a working relationship with Ford Motor Company. We are continuing that relationship in the US.

Through our U.K. partner, The Tanfield Group Plc, SEV U.S. Corp is working with Ford Motor Company to electrify the Ford Transit Connect as a BEV (battery electric vehicle) light-duty van scheduled for production in 2010.

Derrick Kuzak, Ford's group vice president, Product Development, said: "Our collaboration with SEV U.S. Corp will result in the first battery-electric vehicle in Ford’s North American electrification strategy. We know a growing number of our fleet clients have expressed interest in electrification as a sustainable mobility solution. Offering a family of electrified vehicles is a next logical step for us in our product portfolio."
