Beginning with the Company's Vanish electric vehicle, AYRO will utilize GLV's lower cost U.S. manufacturing footprint to add new partnerships and secure new purchase orders

ROUND ROCK, TX / ACCESSWIRE / December 4, 2024 / AYRO, Inc. (NASDAQ:AYRO) ("AYRO" or the "Company"), a designer and manufacturer of electric, purpose-built delivery vehicles and solutions for micro-distribution, micro-mobility, and last-mile delivery, today announced a partnership with GLV Ventures for the engineering and manufacturing of the Company's electric vehicle, the Vanish. The relationship will launch with the re-engineering and manufacturing of the Vanish in the United States using its original specifications.

Josh Silverman, AYRO's Executive Chairman, commented, "We are partnering with GLV to redesign the Vanish vehicle to produce a more viable vehicle using lower-cost production and engineering methods, while also ensuring that the vehicle is made in America at GLV's Beeville, Texas manufacturing facility. We believe that there is a significant market for low-speed EVs, like the Vanish, and we are dedicated to prudent and careful application of capital and resources to optimize its manufacture and distribution, all while ensuring that these vehicles are made in America. While GLV's low-cost manufacturing should help enable us to redesign the Vanish, improve unit profitability and enhance competitiveness in the global market, our principal objective is to leverage this relationship to secure additional partnerships and drive new orders. We look forward to providing progress updates on this and future projects."
