BREA, Calif., June 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- (NASDAQ:) (“Mullen” or the “Company”), an electric vehicle (“EV”) manufacturer, announces today the addition of zero-emissions commercial vehicle dealership, Eco Auto, a Boston, Massachusetts, area dedicated EV dealer. As Mullen’s newest franchise dealer, Eco Auto will cover national fleet opportunities for the Company’s full line of commercial electric vehicles with particular focus on the regional New England area. Eco Auto’s initial vehicle order includes 10 Mullen ONE, Class 1 EV cargo vans, and 3 Mullen THREE, Class 3 EV cab forward EV trucks. 

Headquartered in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, Eco Auto is a national franchise of automotive dealerships with a core focus of making EVs accessible to all. Eco Auto offers a comprehensive electric vehicle experience for customers by providing affordable EVs, hybrid models, advanced charging stations, and expert EV service in state-of-the-art facilities.

“We at Eco Auto are focused on lowering the barriers to entry to sustainable transportation for all and now through our partnership with Mullen that includes municipalities and businesses that want to have a positive impact on the environment and in their local communities,” said Al Salas, president of Eco Auto.

“The New England area is a key Northeast hub for commercial fleet companies and one we are excited to enter,” said David Michery, CEO and chairman of Mullen Automotive. “Eco Auto brings a wealth of frontline retail experience, a strong dedication to EVs, and is a great partner for us to align with.”

The addition of Eco Auto demonstrates Mullen’s ongoing commitment to expanding its commercial EV sales network across the United States. With this new partnership, Mullen now has five new dealers added in recent months, solidifying its national presence and offering businesses across the country access to its innovative commercial electric vehicles.

Mullen’s commercial EV lineup includes the Mullen ONE, Class 1 EV cargo van, and Mullen THREE, Class 3 EV cab chassis truck, purpose-built to meet the demands of urban last-mile delivery. Both vehicles are available for sale and in full compliance with U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, EPA and CARB certifications.
