Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN) is a Southern California-based automotive innovator specializing in the manufacture of electric vehicles (EVs) and energy solutions. The company's primary mission is to make EVs accessible by creating a comprehensive ecosystem that supports all aspects of electric vehicle ownership.
Mullen Automotive's business is anchored by its two U.S.-based vehicle plants in Tunica, Mississippi, and Mishawaka, Indiana, where it commenced commercial vehicle production in August 2023. The company operates through two segments: Bollinger and Mullen/ELMS, which collectively generate its revenue.
One of Mullen's significant assets is its subsidiary Mullen Auto Sales, a fast-expanding chain of auto dealerships. Additionally, Mullen owns CarHub, a digital platform that leverages AI to provide a seamless car buying, selling, and ownership experience. The company’s product lineup includes the Mullen ONE, a Class 1 EV cargo van, and the Mullen THREE, a Class 3 EV cab chassis truck. These vehicles are certified by the California Air Resource Board (CARB) and the EPA, making them available for sale across the U.S. The Mullen THREE, for instance, is HVIP approved, offering up to a $45,000 voucher at purchase combined with a $7,500 federal tax credit, potentially reducing its net effective cost to under $17,000.
In recent developments, Mullen has formed key partnerships to enhance its market reach and operational capacity. Collaborations with entities like Ziegler Truck Group, Range Truck Group, and EnviroCharge underscore Mullen's commitment to delivering zero-emission commercial vehicles. Mullen’s strategic pivot to a zero-emissions model, as highlighted by the launch of the PowerUP zero-emissions mobile charging truck, aligns with the growing market demand for sustainable solutions.
Mullen's international footprint is also expanding, with new distributor agreements in regions like the Balkans and partnerships with companies like Antidoto SA to deploy urban delivery vehicles in Europe. Such initiatives are key to Mullen’s global EV market strategy.
Financially, Mullen received federal EV tax credit approval in September 2023, enhancing the affordability of its commercial vehicles. Additionally, the Tunica, Mississippi plant's Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) status offers various financial benefits, including duty deferment and elimination of export duties.
