The Long and Winding Road
Winner E Mobility Design and Engineering

The Long and Winding Road

In over 40+ years in the automotive industry I have learnt a few home truths in developing new vehicles and launching them:

·????? It always takes longer than you think

·????? You need more money than you think

·????? It is always hard to do

When vehicles then move from an ICE to ZEV platform all of the above increases significantly. None of it is for the faint hearted or uncommitted; it may help to be a little bit crazy.

But there are moments on the journey that make it worthwhile and last night at the UK E-Mobility Oscars Tevva scooped the three major awards; affirming what a great product we have developed and launched over the last 10 years and testament to the commitment of the team.

A huge congratulations to the team, who I am privileged to be a part of, and despite all the challenges to come we know we have the very best UK EV truck. That makes it all worthwhile.
