Tokyo-based Terra Motors, an electric vehicle (EV) startup that produces eco-friendly scooters and tuk-tuks, today announced that it has partnered with an Iranian distributor to bring its products to the West Asian market.
The exclusive deal with Tehran’s Jahanro Industrial is for a period of five years and extends to Terra Motor’s flagship A4000i smartphone-connected scooter and unspecified new products to follow. Terra Motors’ US$4,500 A4000i and its stripped-down A4000 counterpart (price not specified) are slated for global release by the end of this year. The company hopes to ship a combined 100,000 units by the end of 2015.
