• Company’s initial order book value doubles since late August 2023

• Midwest Transit Equipment joins REE’s Authorized Dealer Network and places binding order

• Deliveries to Midwest Transit Equipment are planned to begin in Q1 2024

TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- REE Automotive Ltd. (Nasdaq: REE), an automotive technology company and provider of fully by-wire electric trucks and platforms, today announced its initial order book value1 has doubled since late August 2023. REE’s initial order book value is now approximately $40 million with a recent binding order by Midwest Transit Equipment (MTE), a leading bus dealer in the US, that is now entering the commercial electric truck market with the Powered by REE™ P7-C.

“As we are close to delivering our first vehicles in the US market, REE continues to see strong demand for our P7 electric trucks from dealers around North America, resulting in our order book value doubling in just under two months,” said Tali Miller, chief business officer at REE Automotive. “We are excited to be chosen by Midwest Transit Equipment, a leading bus dealer in the US, as they enter the medium duty truck segment.”

As the largest bus dealer in the US, Midwest Transit Equipment sells and services thousands of new and used buses to customers all over the nation and across the world. It currently has nine locations and over 400 employees. MTE plans to sell Powered by REE™ vehicles in Arkansas, Florida, Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Tennessee and Wisconsin.

“Midwest Transit Equipment, a leading provider of school and commercial buses, is excited to enter the truck space with a strong partner like REE,” said John McKinney, CEO and president of Midwest Transit Equipment. “The management team has vast experience in the truck market and is positioned well for strategic growth. MTE is always looking for growth opportunities within expanding markets. The medium duty truck space and electrification make all the sense in the world.”

REE continues to make steady progress on certifying its P7 electric truck lineup as supported by its recent EPA certification and confirmed FMVSS certification-feasibility of its x-by-wire system, with targeted first customer deliveries this year. On top of its competitive total cost of ownership (TCO), technological advantages and delivery times, REE’s P7 lineup aims to help fleets meet the requirements at both the state and federal level for tax incentives.
