Ideanomics MEG Announces Order from Sichuan Shenwu Yunli Transportation

NEW YORK, March 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Ideanomics, (NASDAQ: IDEX) ("Ideanomics" or the "Company"), has today announced a new vehicle order through its MEG subsidiary from construction services company Sichuan Shenwu Yunli Transportation Services Co., Ltd., the leading construction site dump truck operator in Southwest China provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou.

The order is for 2,000 8x4 meter heavy dump trucks, for use in construction projects in various locations. The vehicles cost approximately 750,000 Renminbi (approx. $107,000 USD) per unit, with the order totaling in the region of 1.5Billion Renminbi, or approximately $215 Million USD.

The vehicles will be procured from a number of manufacturers within MEG's partner alliance and will be subject to a rolling delivery schedule throughout 2020 and beyond. MEG has identified commercial heavy trucks as a strategic segment of its business, and one in which it feels it can derive significant revenues in the next few years as EV heavy trucks deliver significant ROI for fleet operators in terms of fuel savings.

"We are very pleased to be working with Mobile Energy Group and their Qingdao sales hub for this order, which will see us convert our fleet of heavy construction vehicles starting in 2020 and completing over the course of the next two to three years," said Yang Guang, Chairman of Sichuan Shenwu Yunli Transportation Services Co., Ltd. "The MEG team's expertise and knowledge of the EV truck market, and the associated financing and rebate structures required for the electric vehicle market, were a key factor in our decision in the timing and placement of this order."
