Astheimer Design

I genuinely believe that we need a different solution to today’s transportation demands. There are a number of ‘last mile’ and non-traditional vehicle solutions being developed which I will be following closely next year. Many of these seem to be coming out of mainland Europe so it is great to see the guys at ELM mobility, Prodrive and Astheimer Design getting much needed, and deserved, funding to progress. #automotive #ev #transportation #logistics #lastmile

We're delighted to announce ELM mobility has secured strategic investment from Barclays to help support the next phase of our development. Steven Poulter Head of Principal Structuring and Investments, Barclays said: “Whilst other small, last-mile vehicles exist, EVOLV is addressing a gap in the market for a light-weight e-vehicle that can carry a Euro pallet, the most widely used exchange pallet globally. Unmatched for capacity and efficiency, and backed by two leaders in the auto industry, ELM Mobility will have a strong offering for a growing, last-mile and low-carbon delivery market.” Full press release and further information please see https://lnkd.in/eUbhmX9Z Prodrive Astheimer Design #sustainablemobility

We’re here all day with the vehicle, right outside the oculus building. Come say hello! #sustainabledesign

Sometimes there's just no substitute for hard work, and our team worked incredibly hard to complete the prototype vehicle on time for ELM mobility. To celebrate, we invited our families and friends into the studio to see the vehicle and thank them for their support. In the process, we took a few team photos, some with topical inspiration... Oasis vs Astheimer Design vs Manchester City Football Club... who wore it best? #teamwork #sustainabledesign #definitelymaybe

Thanks Robert Llewellyn for your video, it was a real pleasure to meet, what a great bloke! https://lnkd.in/eiGfBPtR

This year, #WorldEVDay is asking businesses, policymakers and individuals across the world how they will #DriveChange to continue supporting the shift to a decarbonised society. Although a lot remains confidential, we're proud to be playing our part... From electric trucks to buses, cars and vans... eVTOLs to Foiling ferries, micro mobility and more. Helping some of the world's most innovative sustainable mobility companies bring their ideas to life. In addition, last week we announced ELM mobility - our collaboration with Prodrive to create the first ground-up, fit-for-purpose zero-emission last mile delivery platform, making a positive difference to cities around the world. #sustainabledesign #sustainablemobility

A lot can be accomplished in 12 months when you have the right mind-set! #innovation #sustainabledesign

Some special guests visiting Elm today…

Welcome to the world ELM mobility launched at Cenex Expo today! Awesome to see this finally unveiled, a great collaboration between Astheimer Design and Prodrive.

We're proud and excited to launch EVOLV, an all-new compact and highly efficient ‘last mile’ electric quadricycle demonstrator with a cubic load capacity rivalling mid-size vans, revealed at Cenex Expo 2024. Designed by Astheimer Design engineered by Prodrive, the zero emission EVOLV demonstrator offers N1 load capacity and passive safety crash standards in a L7e package, bringing reliability, safety, versatility and efficiency to fleet operators whose needs are currently unmet. EVOLV is one of 10 ‘Advanced Route to Market Demonstrator’ competition (ARMD2) projects to receive support from the UK Government’s Department for Business and Trade (DBT), through the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK Advanced Propulsion Centre UK Taking this concept to the next phase, Astheimer Design and Prodrive have founded ELM mobility, a new UK-based joint venture to design, engineer and manufacture a last mile EV in 2028. #sustainabledesign #innovation #cenexexpo2024
