Blink Charging Co. (Nasdaq: BLNK, BLNKW) (“Blink” or the
“Company”), a leading owner, operator, and provider of electric
vehicle (EV) charging equipment and services, announced its
cooperation with Bisimoto Engineering to promote Blink as their
charging solution of choice and to support electric vehicle (EV)
adoption nationwide. The California-based automotive creators,
designers, and modifiers focus on converting gas-powered vehicles
to electric powertrains that become masterpieces to drive and
charge.
“At Blink, we believe it is our responsibility
to work with other passionate members of the EV space to create
excitement around electric vehicles and promote widespread EV
adoption. The team at Bisimoto embodies the passion behind electric
performance cars and the innovative spirit needed to work toward a
greener future. We are excited to serve as their EV charging
partner,” said Rebecca Gutierrez, Blink Charging VP of
Marketing.
Bisimoto’s first electric vehicle creation is
the Porsche K3V. Their team decided to enter the electric space
with a striking design and a robust powerplant. It is powered by a
637-horsepower custom AC three-phase electric motor with a battery
pack consisting of 12 LG Chem modules with 32-kWh capacity and
weighs just 2,681 lbs. The K3V has been featured in Business
Insider, Top Gear Magazine, Autoblog, SpeedHunters, and more.
The next electric project Bisimoto is completing
is the Porsche Moby-X. Designed in collaboration with ACRONYM
co-founder Errolson Hugh, renowned concept design artist Khyzyl
Saleem, and sponsored by Blink Charging, the fully electric Moby-X,
is set to be launched later this year. It taps into the sleek
aesthetics of the original Porsche “Moby Dick” race car – most
notably that signature whale tail-inspired rear valance – while
adding contemporary updates: a modernized set of aero-shaped LED
headlights flanking the bumper, a reworked center front fascia, and
a specific aerodynamic kit that includes extensions for the
sills.
“As the automotive industry shifts to electric
power, Bisimoto Engineering has quickly become one of the most
highly regarded EV conversion specialists in the high-performance
space nationwide. We are proud to work alongside the Bisimoto team
to drive more attention to the EV industry,” commented
Gutierrez.
Located in East Los Angeles, Bisimoto
Engineering, is led by Bisi Ezerioha, CEO and Chief Engineer. The
Company’s vehicles have been featured in BBC's “Top Gear,” “Fast
& Furious,” Netflix's “Fastest Car” and “Hyperdrive,” “Jay
Leno's Garage,” EA's “Need 4 Speed” franchise, and more. Bisimoto
will also be co-hosting a virtual ride of the Porsche K3V and the
brand-new Ford Mustang Mach-E in the @GreenLivingGuy Instagram Live
event on February 20th at 3pm ET/12pm PT.
Bisi is a Chemical Engineer and former
professional race car driver who takes a scientific approach to
creating, designing, modifying, and improving automotive components
and vehicles for major OE manufacturers, film, video games,
television, privateers, and more.
“At Bisimoto Engineering, we believe the future
is electric and we want to provide guilt-free, exhilarating
mobility solutions for an emerging world. Prior to access to the
Blink fast-charging capabilities, I had a bit of range anxiety with
the K3V,” said Bisi Ezerioha. “The Blink app is intuitive, user
friendly, helps me with directions to nearby stations, and the fast
charge stations allow me to charge while I grab a cup of
coffee! When at home, the Blink HQ is a safe, elegant,
aesthetically appealing unit which compliments my decor.”
