Phoenix Completes Purchase of Proterra's Transit Business

Acquisition Adds Full-size All-electric Transit Buses to the Company's Existing Medium-duty Offering

ANAHEIM, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 12, 2024 / Phoenix Motor Inc. (NASDAQ:PEV) ("Company" or "Phoenix"), a leading electrification solutions provider for medium-duty vehicles, today announced that it has completed the acquisition of the Proterra Transit business line ("Proterra Transit") from Proterra Inc. and Proterra Operating Company, Inc. (collectively "Proterra"), a leading innovator in commercial vehicle electrification technology. Earlier this week, Phoenix received the requisite approval from the U.S. bankruptcy court. This transformative acquisition will add heavy-duty transit buses to Phoenix's existing product line of medium-duty shuttle and school buses.

"Phoenix is very pleased to have completed its acquisition of the Proterra Transit business and thanks all parties for their tireless efforts over the past several months to make this possible. Proterra has a strong position in the full-size, zero-emission transit bus market, just as Phoenix has in the medium-duty market. Having spent countless hours meeting with Proterra Transit team members and learning more about their business, we are more excited than ever about this acquisition opportunity," said Denton Peng, CEO of Phoenix. "We have already identified attractive growth opportunities as we add transit buses to our product offering and we look forward to servicing Proterra Transit's existing customers and developing long-term relationships with them."

Phoenix looks forward to providing regular updates on the progress of its business as it integrates the Proterra Transit team and assets into its operations and pursues its long-term strategy to create value for all stakeholders.
