During the soft launch phase, Trikke bagged an order from Best Buy (fall 2010) and sold an 84 EV fleet to the Abu Dhabi police. The company also formed an assembly partnership with Segway’s distributor in Brazil.
John Simpson, CEO of Trikke, said: “The response to the Tribred EVs is overwhelmingly positive from consumers, institutions and businesses alike. Our findings also confirm that the Tribred outperforms the competition in every relevant feature category at less than half the cost.”
“As part of our industry outreach, we’re now proactively identifying potential strategic partners and investors that can immediately make a positive impact on Trikke.
“We’re conservatively forecasting over 100,000 EVs per year in five years. With that kind of volume, we want to make sure we’re on the radar of candidate suppliers, financiers, marketers and media.”
