Excerpts (paraphrased) from the interview include:
“In my previous role as President with Ricardo we were working
with ElectraMeccanica for different projects… The SOLO was an
exciting concept for us… The Tofino is also very exciting… so I
became very excited right from the get-go.”
“I was brought in because of the background I have around
vehicle development and understanding what’s required from A-to-Z
when putting a car on the road… and that’s the point we are right
now.”
Prior to joining Meccanica, Mr. Rivera most recently served as
President of Ricardo, USA, a division of Ricardo, PLC (LON: RCDO),
a 100-year-old global engineering, strategic, and environmental
consultancy business. For a complete bio, please click here.
Mr. Rivera continues… “I think the best way to describe where we
are today as a Company is we’re entering the period where we’re
execution based… Up until today it’s been all about the
development of the prototypes… taking the concept to a point that
we’re going to put it into production. We’re at that point where we
want to build shareholder wealth and build a Company based on
putting an exciting product on the road that’s safe and
reliable.”
CFO Ms. Bal Bhullar concluded, “We have done a proof of concept
for over two years. We have proved the technology of the vehicles
and now it’s about scaling up.”
