Shoshoni Native American Tribe Pilots Mullen Commercial EVs at Harrah’s Northern California Casino
July 24 2023 - 8:00AM
via IBN -- Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN) (“Mullen” or the
“Company”), an emerging electric vehicle (“EV”) manufacturer, today
announces a pilot program for its Mullen ONE Class 1 EV Cargo Vans
and Mullen CAMPUS Delivery Utility Vehicles with the Shoshoni
Native American Tribe of Northern California and Nevada to serve
Nations Distribution located on the Harrah’s Northern California
Resort & Casino property.
Mullen and the Shoshoni tribe have agreed to a pilot program
that will evaluate the Mullen Class 1 cargo vans and campus EVs in
several use cases across Harrah’s daily operations. The
collaboration between Mullen and the Shoshoni tribe represents a
step towards a greener future and serves as a model for other
organizations and communities to follow. This partnership brings
numerous benefits, from economic opportunities to community
engagement, and aligns with the tribe’s global efforts to mitigate
climate change and protect the environment by promoting clean
energy alternatives. By using the Mullen ONE and Mullen CAMPUS EVs,
the Shoshoni tribe is demonstrating its commitment to
sustainability and environmental consciousness.
“Our tribe’s vision to transition to electric-powered vehicles
and sustain green initiatives is in line with the National EV
Initiative for Tribal Nations,” said Chief William Bills, the CEO
and president of the Shoshoni tribe. “The collaboration between the
Shoshoni tribe and Mullen aligns with the national initiative and
serves as a powerful example for other tribal nations to follow. By
showcasing the successful integration of electric vehicles into our
operations, the Shoshoni tribe can inspire and encourage other
tribes to explore sustainable transportation options.”
The National EV Initiative for Tribal Nations recognizes the
unique position of tribal communities to lead in sustainable
transportation solutions, and it aims to promote the adoption of
electric vehicles within tribal communities across the United
States. By transitioning to electric vehicles, tribes can reduce
their carbon footprint, improve air quality and promote energy
independence. The initiative offers support, resources and
technical assistance to tribal nations in their efforts to deploy
electric vehicles and establish charging infrastructure.
“The Shoshoni tribe is committed to a greener future, and we
need more communities to follow their lead,” said David Michery,
CEO and chairman of Mullen Automotive. “With each commercial pilot
program and subsequent orders, we gather valuable feedback and data
on the performance of the Mullen EVs, which is utilized to improve
our vehicles further.”
