BREA, Calif., March 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via InvestorWire — Mullen Automotive, Inc<\/u><\/a>. (NASDAQ: MULN<\/u><\/a>) (\u201cMullen\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), an emerging electric vehicle (\u201cEV\u201d) manufacturer, today announces Class 1 EV cargo vans were delivered to the University of North Carolina (\u201cUNC Charlotte\u201d) at Charlotte with the vehicle order fulfilled by Randy Marion Automotive Group.<\/p>\n

UNC Charlotte, North Carolina\u2019s urban research university founded in 1946, purchased Mullen Class 1 EV cargo vans for use across its 1,000-acre campus, and more than 29,500 students. The vans will be used for a variety of university use cases, including campus delivery and facility services.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing our first commercial trade show, the National Truck and Equipment Work Truck Week in Indianapolis earlier this month, it is exciting to continue our momentum with the Mullen commercial lineup and celebrate our first fleet deliveries. These 100% electric vans are a fantastic use case for university campus delivery applications,\u201d said John Schwegman, chief commercial officer of Mullen Automotive.<\/p>\n

“UNC Charlotte is committed to helping create a more sustainable environment,\u00a0including\u00a0developing and implementing a comprehensive plan designed to reduce carbon emissions,\u201d said T. J. Woods, the university’s transportation, warehouse and logistics manager.<\/p>\n

\u201cUNC Charlotte represents the first of many customers that have expressed interest in Mullen\u2019s commercial product lineup. The lower total cost of ownership and reduced emissions of Mullen EVs will make switching to electric an easy purchase decision for many customers,\u201d said Brad Sigmon, manager of commercial sales at Randy Marion Automotive.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to announce delivery of Class 1 EV cargo vans to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and look forward to the continued adoption of EVs in place of standard ICE vehicles,\u201d said David Michery, CEO and chairman of Mullen Automotive.<\/p>\n
