About Wrightspeed
Wrightspeed is a company specializing in the development of range-extended electric powertrains designed for heavy-duty vehicles such as local delivery trucks, city buses, and waste management fleets. Operating in the commercial transportation sector, Wrightspeed addresses the inefficiencies of traditional diesel engines by offering a powertrain solution that significantly reduces fuel consumption and emissions while maintaining high performance. The company's core product, the Fulcrum microturbine, is ten times cleaner than conventional piston engines and ensures optimal efficiency whether the vehicle is idling, accelerating, or running at full speed. Wrightspeed's business model focuses on selling these advanced powertrains to vehicle manufacturers and commercial fleet operators, rather than individual end users. Revenue is generated through the sale of these powertrains and potentially through long-term service agreements. Recognized as a 2016 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum, Wrightspeed continues to innovate in the field of sustainable transportation solutions.
