The Ukrainian company Murmuration Technology, recently renamed Coolon Motors, has developed the Coolon light commercial electric truck and is ready to launch it reported Autogeek.


Production of the Coolon truck will start in 2022, with the manufacturer producing 2,000 electric vehicles during the first year, and will further increase the production rate to 20,000 cars per year.
