Vehicles Presented to Committee at Kick-off
Media Event
ElectraMeccanica Vehicles Corp. (NASDAQ: SOLO) today announced
its partnership with the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee (SBHC)
during an official vehicle hand-off event at the Phoenix Convention
Center.
As just one part of its partnership, ElectraMeccanica presented
the SBHC with ten custom-wrapped, all-electric, SOLOs for the
Committee to use as courtesy vehicles during the Super Bowl during
January and February.
The vehicles will help SBHC employees and volunteers to easily
navigate crowded city streets and limited parking options. The
vehicles will also save on fuel costs and minimize environmental
impact, all of which helps the SBHC to ensure its goal of leading
the greenest Super Bowl ever.
ElectraMeccanica will also support the SBHC by participating in
various events throughout Arizona during the weeks leading up to
the Super Bowl, including an interactive display at the Super Bowl
Experience presented by Lowe’s at Hance Park, 100 Yards of
Education: A STEM Playbook for Youth education event at State Farm
Stadium with an anticipated attendance of more than one thousand
students, and other events the week leading up to Super Bowl
LVII.
“We have made a significant commitment to Arizona by recently
moving our corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility to
Mesa,” said Susan Docherty, CEO of ElectraMeccanica Vehicles Corp.
“It is important for us to support our home state, and by so doing,
to help the SBHC deliver the greenest Super Bowl ever. We want to
set an example for other such events throughout America, and
hopefully, around the world. Moreover, we believe it’s important
for business leaders and elected officials, as well as the general
public, to understand that the average person drives alone 80% of
the time, in a vehicle that seats more than 4 people, which leads
to a lot of unoccupied seats, and a lot of wasted energy. That’s
something we are committed to help change through the design and
sales of our vehicles and through the support of organizations like
the SBHC.”

About the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee
The Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee is a nonprofit
organization responsible for planning and executing a successful
Super Bowl LVII in 2023. The goal of the Host Committee is to
galvanize local stakeholders in a united approach to hosting the
largest single-day sporting event in the world by maximizing
positive media exposure, fueling the economic engine of Arizona,
and leaving a lasting legacy in the community. The Host Committee
serves as liaison between the NFL and all regional efforts,
culminating with the game in 2023 at State Farm Stadium, home to
the Arizona Cardinals. This is the fourth time Arizona is hosting
the Super Bowl, following 1996, 2008 and 2015. Only four other
sites (South Florida, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and Tampa Bay) hold
this distinction. For more information, visit azsuperbowl.com or
