Statements from pepper motion and REV Mobilities

As a technology leader, we are convinced that our innovative solutions – in close cooperation with our new partner REV Mobilities – will enable us to offer French policymakers as well as all transport companies and fleet operators a fast and cost-efficient way to achieve the mobility transformation towards zero emissions».

«REV Mobilities, as a pioneer and inventor of the electric retrofit sector in France, is dedicated to upcycling Mobilities. Given the challenges of decarbonization and low emission zones, public and private fleet greenhouse gas reduction, the re-industrialization of France and budget savings in general for individuals and companies, retrofitting is one of the best solutions ever. We are very pleased to be launching a partnership with market leader pepper motion GmbH for sustainable solutions for the electrification of the French commercial vehicle sector», explains Arnaud Pigounides, founder and CEO of REV Mobilities.
