[Nationwide Expansion Confirmed!] First-Landing Project for Urban EV Mobility 'e-NEO' in 47 Prefectures Launched. Simultaneously Seeking Test Drive Event Locations Nationwide.

EV INNOVATOR (operated by Sky Innovator Co., Ltd. / Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Takeo Miura), following the favorable reception of test drive sales events previously held in Saitama, Fukuoka, Nagoya, and Okinawa, has decided to launch the '47 Prefectures First Landing Project'.

In this project, we aim to create test drive opportunities tailored to the mobility challenges and lifestyle characteristics of each region, and will begin recruiting event locations and cooperating partners across the country.

We will roll this out as a nationwide project to verify whether urban mobility, functioning as a 'third choice that is neither a car nor a motorcycle', can serve as daily life infrastructure.

■ Feedback from Past Test Drive Sales Events
In the four areas (Saitama, Fukuoka, Nagoya, Okinawa) where test drive sales events have been held so far, we have received reactions such as the following:
- Many voices saying, "More practical than imagined" and "Can be considered as a realistic means of transportation."
- High suitability for short-distance trips (3-5km).
- Manifestation of 'niche needs' where existing cars/motorcycles are excessive, but walking/bicycles are insufficient.
- It has become clear that use cases and evaluation criteria vary greatly by region.

A major characteristic is that these are not just experiential events, but function as venues to judge whether it can be "integrated into daily life."

■ Entering a 'Transitional Period' for New Mobility Infrastructure
Currently, transportation means in Japan face the following challenges:
- Cars: High cost and maintenance burden
- Motorcycles: Load capacity and safety issues
- Walking/Bicycles: Limits to distance and comfort

Under these circumstances, the demand for urban EV mobility is beginning to manifest as a new category that realizes 'just enough mobility'.

Among them, 'e-NEO' has features such as '3-seater', 'compatible with a regular license', and 'no vehicle inspection or garage certificate required', making it a mobility solution with the potential to be implemented as life infrastructure.

This nationwide expansion is not just a sales expansion, but a project to verify whether "a fundamental shift in the values of mobility is occurring."

■ 47 Prefectures First Landing Project: Recruiting Event Locations and Partners
In this project, we plan to sequentially hold test drive sales events across the country.
We will expand progressively while verifying use cases according to the characteristics of each region.
Concurrently, we are recruiting test drive event locations and cooperating partners from all over the country.

Target Candidates:
- Commercial facilities (shopping malls, complex facilities, etc.)
- Tourist spots, resort areas
- Housing exhibition grounds, local event venues
- Municipalities, local organizations
- Corporate premises (locations where visitor flow can be secured)

Hosting Conditions:
- Area: Nationwide (both urban and rural)
- Space: Outdoor space where vehicle display + test drive paths can be secured (approx. 100-300 sq meters or more recommended)
- Duration: 1 day to multiple days (negotiable)
- Traffic Flow: An environment where general visitors can naturally drop by

■ "Knowing the Options. The Unprecedented Choice Called e-NEO"
Giving everyone the opportunity to "think after experiencing" many options.
What EV INNOVATOR proposes is a third choice of "driving it first and then deciding."

The "New Means of Mobility" called e-NEO
The features of the urban 3-wheel EV 'e-NEO' are as follows, designed to be suitable for "driving as an everyday local transport, not for long trips."

- Simple operation
- Compact body
- Safe, primarily in low-speed ranges
- No gasoline needed
- Low cost at about 150 yen/100km converted to electricity costs

We aim to provide a realistic answer to voices such as "I want to review vehicle maintenance costs," "I don't want to let go of the freedom of mobility," and "I want to go to the hospital or shop on my own."
