Bollinger

Bollinger Motors is an American automobile manufacturer of electric vehicles based in Oak Park, Michigan.
The automotive company Bollinger Motors was founded in Hobart, New York in 2014 by its namesake, American entrepreneur Robert Bollinger. The aim was to develop a full-size electric off-road vehicle.
In April 2017, Bollinger showed an aluminum chassis with a 105 in wheelbase that weighed 295 lb alone, designed for a forthcoming "all-electric sport utility truck". The first result of the work of Bollinger's designers was a prototype of a three-door car called the B1, which was presented in June 2017. The car has an austere design distinguished by an angular body covered with matte varnish and the possibility of disassembling the rear part of the roof, its appearance was compared by the automotive press to vintage Ford Bronco and Land Rover Defender utility vehicles. The market launch of the model was then scheduled for 2019. By August 2017, the manufacturer managed to collect 6,000 "expressions of interest" for the Bollinger B1; these did not require a refundable deposit. Bollinger deliberately designed the 2017 B1 prototype as a medium-duty Class 3 truck with a GVWR between 10,001 and 14,000 lb in order to reduce the regulatory burden on the company compared to passenger cars and light-duty trucks....
