An Australian assembled prototype electric van will be unwrapped in Sydney on April 2.
The launch event by ACE EV Group is at the Energy Revolution stand, part of Smart Energy Conference and Exhibition at the International Convention Centre, Darling Harbour, from April 2-3.
The first Cargo was assembled at the Motor Traders Association of Queensland workshops in Brisbane, the EV test driven just after the MTA hosted the Carmageddon New World Mobility event on March 21.
Those involved included international visitors such as corporate partners Dr Charles Kung and Gerhard Kurr, the global partnership led in Australia by Greg McGarvie and Will Qiang, the founding directors of Australian Clean Energy Electric Vehicles (ACE EV).
The ACE EV Group has an environmental passion and vision, to develop in Australia a clever, low cost e-mobility transport solution, tied to a future manufacturing base and research facility located in Australia and liaising with their research and development counterparts in Germany and Ningbo.
The objective behind manufacturing right-hand drive electric vehicles in Australia is to support entry into export opportunities across all right-hand drive countries.
ACE EV intends supplying up to 100 units around late 2019 and early 2020.
It also has plans for the Yewt, Urban and a Sportz, the latter to be revealed next year.
A refundable deposit of $980 is being taken for the Cargo, with reservations for the Yewt and Urban expected to be available after the Sydney launch.
