The main reason for the change of name is the continued expansion of the product and solution portfolio, which is open to all technologies, but also because of the momentum of the rapidly growing company and the associated internationalization of its business. These developments require corresponding changes to its corporate design and brand identity.<\/p>\n<p>pepper motion as the company name is the umbrella brand of the world\u2019s first digital OEM and embodies the company\u2019s mission for the future of electromobility in the commercial vehicle industry. etrofit will continue to exist as a brand name in the pepper motion retrofitting business unit given its existing high level of international recognition and image as the innovation leader for electrification technology in the commercial vehicle sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom our beginnings as a start-up company, our path has been characterized by dynamism, creativity and innovation. This is the only way we can also play a key role in shaping the transformation to a climate- and environmentally-friendly society with sustainable and emission-free electromobility solutions,\u201d says Andreas Hager, CEO of pepper motion GmbH, describing the company&#8217;s philosophy. \u201cWe aim to become one of the world\u2019s leading companies in the field of electric mobility and commercial vehicles with our technologies and solutions. Our new name, pepper motion, conveys the necessary spirit for this and creates the right associations in people\u2019s minds internationally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>pepper motion GmbH already offers far more products and solutions than electric drive systems for the electrification of existing commercial vehicles. Charging infrastructure and digitalization concepts are among the products being developed alongside the company&#8217;s proprietary technological core vehicle control software, the vehicle control unit (VCU). In addition, its Green Mobility as a Service solutions model the entire electromobility of a company in a \u201cprice per kilometer\u201d, starting with the vehicle including maintenance, charging infrastructure, and fleet management.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, pepper motion is already working on solutions relating to battery and fuel cell systems for commercial vehicles. The company also has strategic plans for new vehicles in the commercial vehicle sector under its own pepper motion brand in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The company&#8217;s redesigned website complements its new name and the future corporate and product design of pepper motion GmbH.<\/p>\n<p>You can now find all the information you need about the pepper motion world online at www.peppermotion.com.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>About pepper motion GmbH:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>pepper motion \u2013 electrifying transportation!
