REE Automotive revealed its autonomous concept vehicle based on a brand new ultra-modular EV platform design. The full-scale concept is geared for customers including last-mile autonomous and electric delivery companies, delivery fleet operators, e-retailers and technology companies seeking to build fully autonomous solutions.
Leopard's design and specifications are the result of collaborative work with leading global delivery and technology companies focused on autonomous delivery and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) fleets. The concept vehicle is 3400 mm in length with front-wheel-steer, rear-wheel-drive and has a 2-tonne gross vehicle weight.
Leopard - a last mile autonomous concept vehicle - is designed to carry significantly more cargo due to REE's low, flat floor. This means improved environmental impact of fewer trips in fewer vehicles, backed by a strong cost of ownership (TCO) structure: each vehicle in the fleet will be less expensive to run and maintain due to reduced energy cost and improved serviceability, leading to lower maintenance costs.
Daniel Barel, REE co-founder and CEO said, "Autonomous and electric vehicles 'Powered by REE' offer unsurpassed operational efficiency and the lowest total cost of ownership combined with full flexibility when it comes to integrating top hats in virtually any size, shape or form. We're here to make the shift to a carbon neutral future a reality faster and at scale."
