Mark Hanchett, CEO and Founder – started 2016, tech background, worked at Axon (Taser)

Per Mark - I believe that to change the world we need to build it ourselves. We cannot wait for the government to force it, and we cannot wait for big corporations to innovate. To make this world better, we need to develop the products, technologies, and solutions that make the current standard obsolete. I believe dedication to this is what makes great products and great people.

ELECTRIC WITHOUT COMPROMISE

The future won’t be built by compromising today’s technological abilities. Built off of our three business units — Energy, XP Platform, and XT Pickup Truck- our vision at ATLIS is: to build the technology ecosystem that powers our lives.  

ATLIS is revolutionizing battery technology from the ground up and developing the AMV cell entirely in-house, reimagining what a work vehicle powered by our AMV technology should look like with the XT pickup truck. We are bringing the future standard of vehicle capabilities to alternative mobility markets such as box trucks and emergency vehicles with the XP Platform. All these capabilities disrupts and surpass the current standards of vehicle performance. 

 

Electric vehicles history, and the inspiration for Atlis Motors. Atlis is an energy company, the Apple of electric vehicles and the truck is their I-Pod. Electric trucks, engine battery, and battery design. Where (and how) is the battery produced?

Difference between electric car and hybrid like Prius. We dispel myth that Tesla is the only player in the industry.  Current state of the industry, plus what is the future of the industry – will all cars be hybrid or electric?
