GOLD PARTNERS

SoftWheel designs, engineers andmanufactures advanced electric vehicle platformsmaking the future of electricmobilitymore efficient, reliable and scalable. Backed by global leading automakers, SoftWheel’s technology is in the process of becoming the standard for EVs. At SoftWheel, we developed a technology that enables a completely flat and modular chassis and for that we had to reinvent the wheel. Our disruptive technology allows for the integration of the electric motors, steering, suspension, drivetrain, sensing, brakes, electronics, cooling and gears into the wheel area of the car. This revolutionary approach frees space, reduces the vehicle weight and enables a full freedom of design by creating a complete skateboard chassis. This unique architecture reduces up to 67% of the space and up to 33% of the weight of a similar conventional vehicle, enabling the highest $$ return per ride. SoftWheel’s technology plays a fundamental role in recent global platform consolidation trends where one chassis is designed to fit multiple vehicle applications and serves multiple automakers andmobility providers, thus dramatically reduces the development and engineering costs of new chassis platforms. With our complete flat skateboard chassis, the body design is fully flexible and allows multiple body configurations on a single platform frompassenger to cargowhile allowing for a significantly smaller footprint without compromising on performance, range or comfort. SoftWheel’s solution is ready for the future of autonomous drive with the seamless integration of our novel preventativemaintenance technology responsible for minimal downtime and undisruptive service. With the support of our partners, theworld’s leading Tier1s and automakers, SoftWheel ensures the delivery of cutting-edge technology, at automotive grade, in large scale and with global presence.
