Decision supports Romeo Power’s focus on designing innovative, versatile commercial battery solutions for the evolving EV market.
Romeo Power, Inc. (“Romeo Power” or the “Company”) (NYSE: RMO), an energy technology leader delivering advanced electrification solutions for complex commercial vehicle applications, announced that the Company has been selected by a U.S. manufacturer of Low-Speed Electric Vehicles (LSEVs) as the sole provider of lithium-ion batteries for its next generation vehicle.
These LSEVs are affordable, road-ready transportation options for food, packages and other resources, and are also ideal for campus mobility and last-mile distribution applications.
Susan Brennan, Romeo’s Chief Executive Officer, said:
We are pleased to have been chosen as the battery supplier for our valued customer, and we believe it provides further validation of our technology and the value proposition we offer to OEMs,
“This partnership allows Romeo to fulfill our customer’s need for versatile commercial battery products sourced in North America.”
“Our customer’s next generation LSEVs will feature a sleek design, functionality, affordability and sustainability, making it an attractive option for fleet managers who constantly seek ways to enhance performance while reducing costs,” Brennan added.

Romeo Power’s Chief Technology Officer AK Srouji, PhD, highlighted four key areas of the Company’s expertise driving its customer’s selection of Romeo Power products over other options, including:
- Romeo’s standard modules provide the necessary energy required in a small form factor to meet the customer’s unique vehicle configuration requirements.
