Problem
Traditional off-road vehicles rely on gasoline, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and requiring ongoing maintenance related to combustion engines. The noise produced by these vehicles can also be disruptive in outdoor environments.
Solution
Orbital Electric Systems designs and manufactures all-electric utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) that eliminate the need for gasoline and reduce maintenance. The Rev 1 UTV offers competitive towing and payload capacity, along with instant acceleration and a quiet ride. The vehicle also features onboard power outlets, enabling users to run tools and machinery directly from the UTV's battery. The electric powertrain is sealed to minimize maintenance, and the vehicle can be charged from standard wall outlets or fast-charging stations.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals and organizations in need of off-road transportation for work or recreation, with a focus on those seeking a sustainable and low-maintenance alternative to traditional gasoline-powered UTVs.
