OMER, Israel, June 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medigus Ltd. (Nasdaq: MDGS), a technology-based company engaged in advancing innovative solutions for large-scale market applications, announced today that Revoltz, its EV and wireless charging joint venture, operated through its wholly owned subsidiary, Charging Robotics Ltd. has successfully completed the preliminary design and functional prototype of Model One, its micromobility vehicle for last mile and food delivery.
Model One, based on Revoltz’ modular micro mobility platform, is designed to facilitate efficient delivery of smaller items in urban environments while maintaining low and immediate transportation costs.
A three-wheeled chassis with a wide platform design provides maximum safety for the rider as well as complete mobility in imperfect road conditions.

Revoltz’ initial efforts have been focused on the micro-mobility market as businesses work to meet the last mile delivery demands associated with ecommerce in urban settings.” Mr. Carmel went on to say, “The completion of the Model One prototype is an important achievement for Revoltz. Initial performance assessments have been extremely positive, reflecting the innovation and engineering incorporated in the design.
