Michigan Department of Natural Resources meets with David R. Medina álvarez of LIVAQ at Newlab to talk EV deployment pilot.

??? Meet David R. Medina álvarez, Newlab Detroit member and founder and CEO of LIVAQ. In 2022, David launched LIVAQ, an electric off-road vehicle company. In 2023, he became one of our earliest members at Newlab Detroit at Michigan Central after completing his studies at the College for Creative Studies in the city. Utilizing Newlab’s advanced prototyping and 3D printing facilities, David and his team developed the Equad, a uniquely engineered electric ATV designed for a captivating off-roading experience with less environmental consequence. With two 16-kilowatt motors running at 1400 rpm, the Equad can reach speeds of up to 87 mph and offers a range of 170 miles on a single charge. All with no emissions, noise pollution, or overheating. In the short time since developing the high-powered prototype, he’s kicked off pilot programs in partnership with Michigan Central and Innovate Marquette SmartZone, and is currently in discussions for a potential program with the Gobierno de la República de México (government of Mexico). Hear David’s inspiring story and witness the Equad in action, powering through the Silver Lake Sand Dunes of Western Michigan. Newlab and Michigan Central are proud to support David and LIVAQ in accelerating his journey! Learn how you can join Newlab’s community of founders who are changing the world: https://lnkd.in/gbNRFZs6
