Electric Last Mile Solutions Announces Long-Term Supply Agreement with Wuling Motors

Electric Last Mile Solutions (ELMS), a designer of intelligent, e-mobility workstations for the last mile, signed a binding, long-term supply agreement with Liuzhou Wuling Automobile Industry Co., Ltd. (Wuling Motors), a supplier of automotive components and one of China’s leading automotive manufacturers of electric cargo vans and light-duty specialty vehicles.

Under the agreement with Wuling Motors, ELMS will have long-term access to EV component systems and parts from Wuling Motors’ commercial EV cargo van platform for the manufacture of the ELMS all-electric Urban Delivery vehicle.

The agreement with Wuling Motors adds to the company’s existing and developing strategic partnerships with other industry-leading suppliers and service providers, including CATL for battery packs, Geotab for advanced telematics, Cox Automotive for comprehensive service coverage and Randy Marion Automotive Group for distribution.

The ELMS Urban Delivery, anticipated to launch later this year, is expected to be the first official Class 1 commercial EV available in the US market and will be produced at the company’s plant in Mishawaka, Indiana. A Class 1 vehicle has a GVWR of 6,000 less or less.

The Urban Delivery is anticipated to have a range of approximately 150 miles and is also expected to come with a suite of connectivity and productivity solutions, including over-the-air updates.

Urban Delivery is expected to enter the US market at a starting price of approximately $25,000, after incentives.
