Over 13,000 bookings secured for the SEV Sion from overseas travelers
The Sion SEV, a groundbreaking Solar Electric Vehicle (SEV) produced in collaboration with contract manufacturer NEVS, is set to hit the production line in 2023. This innovative vehicle, spearheaded by Sono Group, has garnered significant interest, with a total of 13,000 private reservations confirmed to date.
CEO and co-founder of Sono Group, Jona Christians, has expressed enthusiasm about the high number of reservations, stating that it provides a strong tailwind to get the Sion SEV on the road as quickly as possible. The majority of these reservations have come from Germany and the DACH region, but there is also growing interest from countries such as Italy, Spain, Portugal, Finland, and Mauritius.
The Sion SEV's unique selling point lies in its integrated solar technology, designed to extend range, reduce fuel costs, and lessen the impact of CO2 emissions, promoting climate-friendly mobility. This disruptive technology can be adapted to various vehicle architectures, including third-party OEM cars, buses, refrigerated vehicles, and recreational vehicles.
The former SAAB factory in Trollhättan, Sweden, will serve as the production facility for the Sion SEV. Sono Group N.V. (OTCQB: SEVCF) aims to produce 43,000 vehicles per year in a 2-shift operation once production commences. Over a seven-year period, the total production volume for the Sion SEV is expected to be 257,000 vehicles.
Jona Christians has emphasised that the 13,000 reservations for the Sion SEV is a clear sign of people's need for resource-friendly and affordable mobility solutions. The total order value for the Sion SEV is estimated to be 278 million euros.

As the technology adapts to diverse vehicle architectures, it could potentially revolutionize not just cars, but also buses, refrigerated vehicles, and recreational vehicles, thereby reshaping our cities' transportation landscape.
