NEW YORK, NY -- August 19, 2021 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- ILUS
International Inc (OTC:
ILUS) is a M&A company focused on acquiring and developing
technology-based companies globally. Having already completed three
acquisitions in 2021, the company has recently signed two Letters
of Intent for the acquisition of two US companies and is currently
negotiating five acquisitions in total.
ILUS has developed, manufactures, and already sells the world’s
first 6-wheeled electric utility vehicle known as the E-Raptor.
With a range of up to 60 miles and a loading capacity of 3,500
pounds, the E-Raptor 6x6 is the leading heavy duty electric utility
vehicle for industrial, agricultural, and commercial applications.
ILUS is now expanding on its current vehicle to offer a
comprehensive E-Raptor range of commercial electric utility
vehicles (UTVs). This range will offer zero emissions, small to
medium load bearing capacity with off-road and on-road capability
for the purpose of carrying out specific tasks with more efficacy
than traditional passenger vehicles.
In addition to the E-Raptor 6x6 UTV’s, ILUS will offer a 4x4
version, Flatbed version in 4x4 and 6x6 derivatives and an E-Raptor
response vehicle with 2 or 4 seats and customizable accessory
packages for the public safety sector. The E-Raptor 4x4 is designed
to have increased speed and manoeuvrability along with the ability
to carry up to 2,200 pounds, making it suitable for multiple
applications such as rapid emergency response, maintenance,
agriculture, and construction. The Flatbed will be able to
transport up to 3,500 pounds and have a longer load-bed than the
standard 4x4 or 6x6 vehicle, making it suitable for hauling larger
goods in various utility applications. The E-Raptor response
vehicle will be road legal on most roads which are posted up to 40
mph/64 kph, and it will include additional safety and comfort
features such as 3-point seatbelts, a glass windshield with wipers,
LED turn signals, greater suspension travel and adjustable seats
for up to 4 passengers. This type of vehicle has already been
requested by customers and partners and will be used for
applications like campus or perimeter surveillance, event safety
and last mile passenger transport, such as within large hotels and
resorts.
To speed up development of the commercial electric UTV range,
ILUS has recently appointed Kemal Cifti as its Senior Vehicle
Engineer for electric vehicles. Kemal brings more than 15 years’
experience to the team, with a successful track record in the
research, development, and design of Electric Vehicles. As a
qualified Mechanical Engineer, Kemal worked for the automotive
manufacturer, Daimler AG for 13 years where he fulfilled several
senior roles, including that of Daimler’s Senior Project Manager in
Japan where he worked on multiple electrical vehicle projects
including Mercedes-Benz’s next generation Urban eTruck. Before
joining ILUS, Kemal was working as Deputy Director of the R&D
Centre for Volkan Firefighting Vehicles, one of Europe’s largest
Firefighting vehicle and equipment manufacturers.
ILUS Managing Director, John-Paul Backwell, said the following
of Kemal’s appointment and the new commercial electric UTV range:
“We are adding so many valuable members to our team and Kemal’s
broad range of skills and experience will be a huge asset to us.
With the growing requirement for commercial zero emissions vehicles
and the success of our E-Raptor 6x6 combined with the experience we
have on our team, increased manufacturing capacity and a growing
global distribution network, it makes complete sense for us to push
forward with a more comprehensive electric UTV range that will
follow in the footsteps of the current E-Raptor 6x6 and lead the
industry with its performance, capability and reliability.”
ILUS’ new commercial electric UTV range will be manufactured in
the new European facility, which ILUS is in the process of
acquiring. In this facility, ILUS will also be manufacturing
FireBug’s lightweight co-polymer vehicle bodies and rapid response
vehicles which will be distributed globally. Vehicle solutions for
the US will be assembled in the US with components and vehicle
bodies from the European factory, or with components coming from
ILUS’ new US acquisitions.
Nick Link, CEO of ILUS, concluded with the following: “With the
ability to manufacture on a large scale in Europe and with added
manufacturing capability in the US, it is possible for us to expand
our horizons and deliver even more innovative and disruptive
technology to the global market. Yes, we are building on our strong
second quarter and we are on track to deliver even better results
in the third quarter, but we are also building a sustainable
business which will deliver record breaking results in 2022 and
beyond.”
