Company summary:
Vehizero produces hybrid-electric vehicles that offer the urban delivery market a lower cost and environmentally friendly alternative to current delivery vehicles.
Company description:
Vehizero S.A. manufactures and assembles its own one-ton, hybrid electric powered delivery vehicle which it will sell in the urban delivery market. Vehizero is the first manufacturer of hybrid electric vehicles in Mexico. No other company has ever imported or is importing currently hybrid electric vehicles in Mexico.
Vehizero's vehicle is priced on par with traditional vehicles and will be cheaper to maintain, largely because they are much more energy efficient as compared to internal combustion powered vehicles.
In addition to winning first place at the New Ventures 2001 Investor Forum, the company has been invited by BASE in Switzerland and Germany to demonstrate its technological improvements.
