Giusy:
Thank you for your attention to the work of our Team.
I think we will start the distribution this year. We are close to 800000 units pre-ordered.
Warm Regards,
A.R.
The last update regarding the number of pre-orders was on January 22, when he reported 700000 had been reached, and he had remarked earlier that there were about 1000 separate orders, with the volume being made mainly bey ‘big buyers’. It would only take a few more big buys to hit the 1 million mark.
There’s not going to be much progress in the Ecat story until the Ecats get into the hands of customers. For that to happen, the orders target needs to be reached, and then the manufacturing and distribution needs to be ready. If this can happen this year, I think it will be an impressive achievement.
