FN Media Group Presents Microsmallcap.com Market Commentary
New York, NY – April 25, 2022 – UK car sales jumped 28% in January 2022, the biggest rebound in seven months thanks to rising demand for battery-powered vehicles. According to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, one in five buyers opted for a car with a battery, with shipments of fully electric vehicles more than doubling and plug-in hybrids rising 47%. Globally, EV sales are continuing to rise in 2022 after more than tripling their market share between 2019 to 2021. The increased adoption of electric vehicles in the UK and across the world is beneficial for companies like EV Technology Group (NEO:EVTG), Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Nio (NYSE:NIO), Arrival (NASDAQ:ARVL), and ElectraMeccanica (NASDAQ:SOLO), who are all developing new electric vehicles for the growing market.
Founded in 2021, EV Technology Group (NEO:EVTG) is a global end-to-end electric vehicle company helping companies like MOKE International Limited (MIL) transition into the booming electric era. The company, which entered the public markets earlier this month after receiving final approval to list its common shares on Canada’s Neo Exchange, has continued to bolster its business and leadership team.
On April 13, EV Technology announced that it has commenced construction on the MOKE flagship store in St Tropez, France. The construction is in line with the company’s strategy of electrifying iconic brands by carefully selecting legendary cars and bringing them to market with an electric twist.
EV Technology Group also recently strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Dan Burge as Chief Product Officer. Burge is a highly experienced global automotive industry executive with over 20 years in high-level commercial, operational and technical roles. Previous roles have included Commercial Director of Lotus Engineering, and senior commercial and programme roles at Williams Advanced Engineering and Prodrive Automotive Technologies.
Burge will play a key role in building out the product team at EV Technology Group, focusing on incubating new models, brands and other opportunities. He will also open and run a newly formed US office for the Group, based in California.
EV Technology Group entered the growing electric vehicle market in November through a strategic investment in MOKE International Limited, the official producer of MOKE vehicles since 2015 when it acquired the original 1964 brand. As the largest shareholder of MIL, EV Technology Group is working with the company to launch the MOKE Electric in summer 2022 and roll out vehicles across Europe and internationally. The release of this ground-breaking electric vehicle aligns with EV Technology Group’s mission of bringing joy back to motoring by creating sleek, new experiences for drivers, as well as supporting greener transportation and a carbon-neutral world.

Arrival vehicles are designed from the ground up and vertically integrated using a radical new method of design and production using micro-factories – a totally transformative approach to automotive production.
