With a specialization in the production of electric vehicles, he developed a light tactical cargo electric vehicle (LTV) for working in extreme conditions and participating in military operations. According to the creators, it will be able to transport a variety of goods "from plywood to military equipment."

In the beginning, it was quite a civilian electric car for family holidays and travel, but at some point representatives of the US army became interested in it. As a result, a contract signed this year for the development of a special tactical vehicle based on it.

LTV is able to withstand the extreme conditions of the combat zone, for which the body and individual components were made of composite materials and Kevlar, which provided it with strength and light weight.


Depending on the task being performed, two versions are provided — in the form of a pickup truck and an on-board truck. For the safety of transported goods, LTV is equipped with a special fastening system. High cross-country capability of the electric vehicle is provided by 32-inch tires, air suspension and a 600 hp engine. The company promises to provide more detailed information about the electric vehicle shortly before the launch of mass production.
