Clean energy firm, Egoras has announced plans to launch a made-in-Nigeria electric vehicle — APEX 28, in April.
The Chief Executive Officer of Egoras Technology, Ugoji Harry disclosed this to The PUNCH in an interview.
He expressed commitment to transitioning Africans from fossil fuels to sustainable energy with the APEX 28 EV.
The Egoras CEO disclosed that the electric vehicle, manufactured at Egoras’ factory in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, represented a significant step forward to revolutionise and promote clean energy within the transport sector.
“The APEX 28 electric vehicle will be launched specifically on April 28 and that embodies our commitment to innovation and sustainability.
“We believe this homegrown solution will play a crucial role in reshaping the future of transportation in Africa, “ he said.
According to Harry, the APEX 28 has certain features that make it stand out, such as blockchain integration, sensors, and cameras.
He noted the EV boasted a sophisticated and luxurious design, catering to discerning drivers who value both style and sustainability.
He added, “Powered by the Ego Chain blockchain, the APEX 28 offers a unique ownership experience. Drivers can potentially earn $EGAX tokens for using their vehicles, creating a novel incentive for eco-conscious consumers.
