AUTOCRYPT closes Series B with $25.5 million to expand V2X and in-vehicle systems security for intelligent transport

Leave a comment

SEOUL, South Korea, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — AUTOCRYPT, a leading secure mobility and V2X communications company, has raised a $25.5 million Series B round, with post-money valuation of $120 million. Leading backers included Korea Asset Investment Securities, Ulmus Investment, BSK Investment, Shinhan Venture Investments, JB Asset Management, STIC Ventures, Pathfinder H, and Hyundai Venture Investment. 

In 2020, the company closed its Series A round with $15 million and began its Series B round in late 2021 with the goal to expand its V2X offerings globally. Establishing subsidiaries in Toronto, Canada and Munich, Germany, AUTOCRYPT is quickly growing its foothold in Europe and North America, with plans to open its Singapore office later this year.  

CEO and co-Founder Daniel ES Kim said in a statement regarding the funding round, “We’re proud of AUTOCRYPT’s progressive growth, and believe the investments are a reflection of the tremendous amounts of effort we have put into cultivating relationships in this rapidly changing industry of connected mobility.”  

Kim continued regarding AUTOCRYPT’s plans for the next year, remarking, “We believe secure V2X will be the key to wider adoption of autonomous driving – this means implementing secure V2X connectivity in not just vehicles, but roads, infrastructure, but also pedestrian devices.” Kim refers to AutoCrypt SCMS, a tri-standard compliant PKI for message verification across all types of end-entities in the V2X environment. 

AUTOCRYPT is currently in talks with several public agencies across the globe to implement its V2X security and SCMS for C-ITS projects. AUTOCRYPT already manages security and PKI for all C-ITS projects on the Korean peninsula. 

Besides its advancements in V2X security, AUTOCRYPT has also added Security Analyzer™ and Security Fuzzer™ to its in-vehicle systems security solution. Security Analyzer is an SBOM-based software vulnerability analysis platform, protecting vehicle software throughout its entire lifecycle, while Security Fuzzer effectively detects software flaws through smart fuzzing. Both tools are essential for today’s increasingly software-oriented E/E architecture. The company also plans to showcase its newest Plug&Charge (PnC) and EV-related offerings in Oslo at the 2022 International Electric Vehicle Symposium & Exhibition (EVS35).  

About AUTOCRYPT

Yadea Celebrates Mother’s Day with #LegendaryMom Social Media Campaign

Leave a comment

MUNICH, May 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — On Mother’s Day, Yadea, a leading electric two-wheeler brand, is celebrating moms around the world with the launch of its #LegendaryMom social media campaign, incorporating a new Mother’s Day video and a poster. At the center of Yadea’s Mother’s Day campaign is an energetic rap that embodies the brand’s youthful spirit and pays homage to the diverse identities of the modern mom.

“Mothers are not defined solely by the fact that they have children. Mothers have multiple identities in life: they can be family contributors, stylish women and eco-living advocates. As a brand, Yadea has always recognized and supported the plethora of roles that modern mothers occupy in our lives. This film pays tribute to the idea that all mothers around the world are absolutely and unquestionably legendary,” said Aska Zeng, General Manager at Yadea.

A celebration of the modern mom, Yadea’s #LegendaryMom campaign asks audiences to reflect on the diverse roles their mom played, and continue to play, in their lives, from educator to businesswoman and advocate for sustainable living. As their first teacher, mothers are the ones who help kids navigate every aspect of the world, from changing their diapers to helping them study for the big high school exam and enabling them to thrive professionally as they head off to work. They shape children into their best selves – as the rap says: “All your good qualities, they’re hereditary.” Finally, as a “true boss” lady and “real go-getter,” Yadea acknowledges that modern moms are eco-warriors that take action and use sustainable means of transportation to ensure the next generation become leaders in protecting the earth.

Yadea’s #LegendaryMom video launched across the brand’s social media platforms on May 8, 2022, alongside a dedicated Mother’s Day post, which celebrates the diverse roles mothers play, and invites its audience to share pictures to celebrate their own #LegendaryMom on social media.

As a reflection of Yadea’s continued efforts to empower mothers around the globe, the #LegendaryMom campaign forms part of the brand’s larger commitment to support moms as they raise their little ones. Yadea helps mothers guide their children to understand and protect the most important mother of all – Mother Earth – and makes life easier for parents with innovative products, such as its unique kids series. At the same time, Yadea consistently incorporates outstanding award-winning design into its products, including the 2020 Red Dot Design Award winner C1S. This combination of form and function enables children to appreciate and pursue beauty, while assisting mothers to look stylish in their busy daily lives.

As a champion of women everywhere, Yadea steadfastly recognizes and supports the diverse roles that moms play in the modern world. Looking ahead, the company will continue to create green, eco-friendly products that support #LegendaryMoms and accompany children to “Electrify Your Life” as they grow.

Segway-Ninebot’s Smart E-Scooter Production Surpasses 10 Million Units

Leave a comment

BEIJING, April 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Segway-Ninebot held a ceremony in Beijing on April 13th to celebrate its 10 millionth smart e-scooter rolling off production lines.  Segway-Ninebot President and CTO Chen Zhongyuan shared theme keynote “Segway-Ninebot’s cumulative production of smart e-scooter exceeds 10 million units” to address how Segway-Ninebot assumes the role of a world leader in the smart electric scooter sector.

Segway-Ninebot’s Smart E-Scooter Production Surpasses 10 Million Units
Segway-Ninebot’s Smart E-Scooter Production Surpasses 10 Million Units

Segway-Ninebot’s growth into a global leader in the e-scooter sector is due to key decisions that were undertaken early on about the direction of the company’s R&D, along with the results of the comprehensive strengths of its product lineup, branding and business model. “Segway-Ninebot’s vision, to serve more than one billion people with innovative short-distance transportation and robotic products, is the original intent and driving force of our e-scooter portfolio. Electric scooters are also the inevitable choice for us to expand the tool categories and build out the portfolio in short-distance travel between 2 and 20 kilometers,” Chen explained.

The electric scooters market surged tenfold in the European and American markets in 2017 and has continued growing steadily since then. Data from Puyallup, WA-based report publisher QYResearch shows that the global production of electric scooters had reached 4.25 million as of the end of 2020. From 2017 to 2020, Segway-Ninebot’s compound revenue growth rate for e-scooters rose to 132.22%.

As a key component of the business model, the company not only rolled out top quality intelligent e-scooters through both online and brick-and-mortar channels, but also aggressively established a presence in the market by taking early notice of and catching the wave of popularity taking place in foreign markets for shared scooters. Early on, the company struck deals with several major shared micro mobility operators worldwide, providing them with a full set of mobility solutions from product to behind-the-scenes operation and management.

According to Nuremberg, Germany-based consumer goods industry analytics provider GfK, from January 2019 to February 2020, Segway-Ninebot ranked first in the electric scooter markets of Germany, Italy, Spain and other major European countries, while most shared electric scooter operators signed deals with the company as the exclusive or first choice supplier. Now, Segway-Ninebot has become a world-leading supplier of shared micro-mobility solutions by working closely with Spin, Voi and other likeminded players.

The company has also developed a B2B2C business model, and jointly launched customized smart electric scooters with several auto brands including Mercedes-Benz AMG, Audi Seat and Maserati to solve the “last mile” of transportation problem.

Meanwhile, Segway-Ninebot is also aggressively developing new products to meet the differentiated expectations of riders with “diversified” product strategies. Three categories, consisting of nine series, were created to meet the requirements for short commutes (3-30km), long commutes (30-60km) and high-performance rides (60-100km). The nine series include the light and fashionable E series, the “comfort-first”, science-driven F series, and the reliable and practical G series, among others.

In terms of innovation, the company is always looking at new technologies and adjusting its approach based on the latest tech and scientific advancements. In a move to deliver a better cycling experience to riders, Segway-Ninebot co-developed vacuum inflatable tires with several partners by leveraging i-Sealing technology. The resultant tire not only delivers higher durability and safety, but is also immune to blowouts or leaks even when driving over an upright nail. Furthermore, the company’s e-scooters deploy a steel-pipe frame for higher stability and reliability. A proprietary battery safety management system provides double protection against short-circuits, overcurrent, overcharging and overdischarging in tandem with other safety features, assuring the safe operation of the batteries.

Not to be overlooked is that since Ninebot acquired Segway, the power of the brand has been further enhanced, while the global product portfolio has been expanded. Internal resource sharing since the acquisition has effectively improved the comprehensive advantages of the scooter lineup. Results from over 1 million pieces of customer’s survey and feedback show that Segway-Ninebot optimized the user experience for riders, which has been further empowering the digital platform. Benefiting from its large scale and dominant market share among international markets, the company has achieved cost control, joint development, massive supply and agile response through supply chain optimization, increasing product reliability while reducing costs.

To date, the company has production facilities in Changzhou and Shenzhen, with the annual production capacity of smart e-scooters reaching 4 million units, ensuring stable product supply to global markets.

 “Now that the milestone of 10 million units has been reached, the company will continue to improve product life and service, while continuing in its efforts to further promote the development of the industry,” emphasized Chen.

The Segway Super Scooter GT series, a top product in the electric scooter category that was just released in March, was also showcased at the event. The Segway Super Scooter GT series (GT 1 and GT2) have built a reputation as the supercar of the electric scooter world, with a top speed of 37.3 mph (in US market) and 43.5 mph respectively. The GT1 hits 30 mph from zero in 7.5 seconds, while the GT2 does so in just 3.9 seconds. These are not only more than enviable numbers for the daily commute, but also more than meet the expectations of players seeking an extreme experience with their ride.

Horwin Brasil and CBMM team up to apply ultra-fast charging Niobium batteries in electric motorcycles

Leave a comment

Vehicle will be a pioneer in using a battery with Niobium. The model will be presented in the first half of the year, and is expected to hit the market in 2024

SÃO PAULO, April 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Aiming to expand access to clean energy and contribute to the popularization of electromobility in the country, Horwin Brasil, an electric motorcycle company, has partnered with the Brazilian CBMM, the world’s leading specialist in Niobium technologies. The objective of the agreement is to apply a lithium-ion battery with Niobium in electric two-wheel vehicles.

“The partnership with Horwin Brasil is important, as it accelerates the application of ultra-fast recharge batteries with Niobium in motorcycles as well”, says Rogério Marques Ribas, manager of the CBMM Battery Program.

According to Horwin Brasil’s CEO, Pricilla Favero, this project prototype will be presented in the first half of 2022. Horwin’s CR6 model motorcycle will be used, which has 6,200W of engine power and up to 150 km of autonomy. “With CBMM’s expertise and pioneering spirit, added to our highly skilled team in developing new solutions, the expectation is that the motorcycle with a Niobium battery will be available in the Brazilian market as early as 2024.

“We work so that, soon, anyone will be able to use an electric motorcycle with ultra-fast charge of up to ten minutes. In addition to this recharge differential, Niobium batteries bring significant benefits in terms of safety and battery life, as they allow up to 20,000 charges under a relatively wide range, which alone is the greatest advance for this sector in recent times”, complements Pricilla.

Ribas adds that the technology to be used in the electric motorcycle’s battery is the result of more than three years of research and development by collaborating CBMM and Japanese company Toshiba Corporation.

The CBMM manager explains that “the use of Niobium oxide in the anode of lithium-ion batteries provides special features for this component. Being a very stable element, it allows safer and more efficient operations. Furthermore, due to its more open crystal structure, which facilitates lithium intercalation, it allows a full recharge in less than ten minutes, without damaging the battery”. He adds that, due to these unique characteristics, batteries with Niobium are safer and have a much longer useful life than traditional batteries.”

Toshiba Corporation explains that “Toshiba has been focusing our attention on the possibility of Niobium Titanium Oxide (NTO) as a next-generation anode material that will help increase the battery capacity while maintaining the excellent characteristics of lithium titanium oxide (LTO), the conventional anode material of SCiB™. NTO has roughly three times higher theoretical volume capacity density than LTO while providing the advantages of LTO such as long life and rapid charging.”

INNOVATION

Ribas reinforces that “CBMM already works with several companies in the automotive industry, whether in vehicular structures or in developing Niobium applications for electric mobility”. An example is the partnership with Volkswagen Caminhões e Ônibus – VWCO. Announced in 2021, it provides for the application of Niobium batteries in large electric vehicles, which will begin to be tested in 2023, at the VWCO factory, in the city of Resende, state of Rio de Janeiro, and later at CBMM’s industrial plant in Araxá, in the state of Minas Gerais, both in Brazil.

About Horwin Brasil

Horwin Brasil is part of the Horwin Global group, today with more than 700 distributors worldwide, and exporting to more than 60 countries. Horwin’s focus has always been on developing a high-powered electric motorcycle with superior design, quality, and technology. All Horwin products reflect this. In Brazil, we already have a distribution center in Manaus and, by the end of 2022, each region of the country will have a Horwin distributor / dealer. We at Horwin Brasil, from the second half of 2024, will use this new Niobium battery technology on all our motorcycles, charging in less than ten minutes.

About CBMM

CBMM is the world leader in the production and commercialization of Niobium products and has been in the market for over 60 years. CBMM is headquartered in Brazil, with subsidiaries in the United States, the Netherlands, Singapore and Switzerland and representative offices in China. CBMM manufactures and supplies niobium products and develops applications for the infrastructure, mobility, aerospace, health and energy sectors. The company has more than 400 clients in 50 countries. Its business model is guided by solid corporate governance and is based on guaranteed supply and development of new technologies in partnership with the most renowned research centers worldwide.

The Art of Craftsmanship | GAC MOTOR Hosts Chinese-Panamanian Artists Exhibition

Leave a comment

GUANGZHOU, China, March 4, 2022 — GAC MOTOR has been operating in Panama since 2019, earning a solid foothold in the local market with quality vehicles and innovative designs. As Chinese smart manufacturing and automobile technology make a strong reputation worldwide, GAC MOTOR Panama hosts a vibrant exhibition. The Chinese-Panamanian artists at the exhibition represent a shared love for craftsmanship – the combination of beauty and skill – present in visual arts and the art of creating cars.

Progenie | The Spirit of Craftsmanship Across Cultures

The exhibition, named "Progenie," displayed the paintings of Chinese-Panamanian artists of three different ages, highlighting the contribution of Chinese painters to the multicultural tapestry of Latin America and notably Panama today.

The concept of Chinese craftsmanship has been a key pillar of GAC MOTOR’s overseas brand identity for some time now, with the GAC development strategy focusing on bringing outstanding Chinese designs and technology onto the world stage.

Cross-cultural art exhibitions like this one are important in communicating the amazing creativity that Chinese brands and individuals have to offer the world.

Ms. Mai Yap, one of the exhibiting artists based out of Florida, USA, said that "China lives in us, and although we came from and were born in different countries, we carry all that culture within us."

Mai Yap’s colorful works were displayed alongside another young visual artist, Nicole Rumaldo Choy, who represents merging these two cultures’ creative prowess.

The Spirit of Craftsmanship: Continued Efforts in the Americas

GAC MOTOR has become the top-performing Chinese brand in local sales since entering the Panama market in 2019. The nation is now home to more than 400 new GAC MOTOR owners.

Ever since the launch of the All New GS4 and extensive engagement in car rental projects last year, GAC MOTOR has attracted more attention. It has become a representative of Chinese car brands in Panama.

In the new year, GAC MOTOR will continue to provide Panamanian users with a high standard of travel experience. The brand looks forward to a future of further healthy development in the Americas.

SGS assesses that NaaS reduces Carbon Emissions by 896,800 tons a year

Leave a comment

BEIJING, Feb. 12, 2022 — It is commonly said that new energy vehicles (EV) promotes green energy and travel, so then just how much are emissions reduced by EVs, as compared to traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles? Recently, NaaS (the "Company"), one of China’s leading new energy operations and technology providers, revealed the answer by enabling the transition from ICEs to EVs and facilitating the aforementioned emissions and carbon reduction, receiving recognition from the international testing agency SGS for the amount of emissions reduced in the process. According to SGS’s "Assessment Report of Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions on Alternative Traveling by NaaS Electric Vehicles" (the "SGS Assessment Report"), in 2021, NaaS, through the Company’s cooperation with Kuaidian and other partners, provided charging services that reduced carbon emissions by 896,800 tons, based on emissions of 661,100 tons versus the 1,557,9000 tons that would have been emitted by traditional ICEs for the same distances travelled.   

The SGS Assessment Report relied on the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, and the China Certified Emission Reduction (CCER)’s related process and methodologies to make the assessment, and primarily focused on the greenhouse emissions related to EVs that used NaaS’ partner Kuaidian’s related charging services.

Recently, the global adoption of EVs has reached a breakthrough. In 2021, China’s EV sales and penetration rate continues to grow rapidly month on month, and the market has reached a stage of explosive growth. According to statistics from the Public Security Bureau, at the end of 2021, the total number of EVs in China reached 7.84 million, representing 2.6% of all automobiles, and an increase of 59.25% year on year. According to the China Passenger Cars Association (CPCA)’s latest projections, total sales of new EVs is expected to exceed 6 million in 2022, representing a market penetration rate of approximately 22%. In addition, based on the Ouyang Team’s analysis and estimates, China’s new EV sales will reach between 17 million and 19 million by 2030.  In terms of total number of EVs on the road, total EVs in China will reach approximately 100 million by 2030, nearly 200 million by 2035, and nearly 300 million by 2040.   

Based on the expected increase in the number of EVs on the road in China, it can be anticipated that the trends driving the transition from ICEs to EVs will continue to strengthen, and bring with it an increasingly strong decarbonization effect. These trends also mean that the market for EV charging services in China have tremendous room for growth and potential for development. NaaS, as an enabler and strong supporter of EV adoption and the government’s "Dual Carbon" goals, provides the charging infrastructure and services that enables green energy and travel. NaaS, through the Company’s electric charging partners, reliable technology, and strong operational capabilities, will continue to contribute strongly to the decarbonization of transportation services.

NaaS aims to make EV charging more convenient, faster, and the experience better, and enable all members of the industry value chain to improve efficiency and effectiveness. The Company aims to raise the utilization rates of chargers as part of the structural adjustments in China’s energy industry, and help realize "Carbon Neutrality" in the process.
