About
Electric vehicles (EVs) play a crucial role in global efforts to combat climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Achieving true zero emissions by 2050 will require a holistic approach that not only considers emissions during vehicle operation but also covers the entire life cycle of the vehicle. This project aims to explore a sustainable future for electric vehicles, offering manufacturers and OEMs a pathway to low-carbon electric vehicles by focusing on the vehicle lifecycle and using modular design to extend the life of the vehicle. Through this innovation, we are committed to reducing hidden carbon emissions during manufacturing and maintenance, driving a green transformation in the transport sector and promoting sustainable urban lifestyles.
