“We are thrilled to have received this latest investment and excited to kick off production of our electric truck in London,” said Tevva founder and CEO, Asher Bennett.

“Following hot on the heels of COP26, this funding represents a rapid response to the latest targets and commitments.  Mass production of our third-generation truck will help fleet operators take tangible action without compromising the economics of their business and, we believe, can enable ambitious government targets to be met ahead of schedule.

“Over the coming years we will continue to develop new electric and hydrogen truck technologies and execute our innovation roadmap to enable our vehicles to go further, whilst optimising driver experience and vehicle safety.”
