ONE MOTO UK, To Decarbonise The UKs Last-Mile With ￡123,000,000 Financing.

ONE MOTO an impact-driven, multi-award-winning EV player who are building a HardTech meets FinTech EV ecosystem with presence across five continents, specialising in last mile electric vehicles for commercial and private use have secured a capitalisation of ￡123,000,000 to finance vehicles across the UK to pioneer the decarbonisation of the UKs last-mile, delivery and gig economy industry.

Signing an unprecedented deal with a leading financier in London, ONE MOTO are offering finance to fleet operators to expand an electric delivery fleet from just ￡3 per day.

“This is monumental in our expansion road map pan-Europe. With the support of the finance deal we’re expecting to deploy up to 30,000 across the UK in H1 2023. This harnesses our conversations with UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) to open the first European assembly plant.

With 12 months of conversations supporting this announcement, ONE MOTO are supporting leading last-mile food delivery platforms, independent outlets and enhancing the rider welfare through data-rich AI to optimise routes, zones and pay.” States Adam Ridgway, CEO, ONE MOTO Technologies.

“The ecosystem foundations to decarbonise the UKs delivery network are set. We’ve spoken to many leading delivery operators who needed a cost-effective, sustainable option and after many trials we’ve secured roll out plans with several leaders. Replacing a traditional petrol fleet shouldn’t happen overnight, to be highly effective it requires operational management to transition. Yet, it’s not just about the vehicles it’s the ancillary services to capture market dominance. Battery As A Service, supporting battery swaps allowing riders to work undisturbed by downtime, the SaaS FinTech solution, ensures a data rich AI backed cloud system to optimise fleet and rider management. We’ve taken our time to capture and analyse the data and demonstrate the vast economical and environmental savings.” says Mark Harman Director, ONE MOTO

What does this mean for the UK environment?

63,000 petrol motorcycles produce 168,818 tonnes of CO2 each year (as well as other harmful pollutants).

A visual of what 1 tonne of CO2 looks like

• Killing over 198,000 acres of forest each year
• That’s 808km2
• Or four times the size of Paris!

Adam Ridgway, CEO, ONE MOTO Technologies based in Dubai, have one vision “to electrify all last-mile vehicles in the UK by 2026”. Following the UK government’s agenda and commitments we will ensure the world realises, the UK government are supported taking the necessary action to bring change.

What’s next for the partnership?

Both teams will be working to confirm contracts for the 44,500 vehicles in discussion and driving awareness of the benefits, increasing their online and offline distribution channels. Early movers will always have the advantage, but the ‘decision’ to make the commitment first isn’t always forthcoming when considering the environment,?yet.?However, all operators are looking at the commercial viability and when backed up with big data. We’ve proven a faster path to profitability.
