We’re excited to announce the close of our pre-seed round - lead by @BoostVC and @HarpoonVentures following. Both of these visionary investors see the big picture of where offroad electrification can take civilian and military products.
In Barstow, California, a competitive off-road racing team, @1_NineIndust and @THM_Offroad, prepared for the Baja 400 with Starlink. The Performance Kits deployed on their trucks and helicopter deliver high-speed internet, keeping racers and their teams connected in the most remote desert terrains.
Racing at 240 kph (150 mph) to complete more than 1,600 km (1,000 miles), the racers can communicate real-time issues, share stories with families and fans, and livestream the competition, which is now possible with Starlink’s satellite technology. This advancement is not only an industry first for the sport but essential to winning races → https://t.co/9kA2RDXAmb
Powertrain development is at the core of any vehicle program from an OEM. SPM is developing high performance electric offroad powertrains that will electrify light offroad vehicles, especially UTVs.
Have you ever seen a high performance electric UTV with a powertrain integrated as if an OEM designed it? Probably not, because it hasn’t existed until now!
