Strut Motors in Detroit, founded in 2023 by Jameson Detweiler and ilan Penn, builds electric cars and trucks designed for trips less than 10 miles, charge fully in fewer than 10 hours on any outlet, and have a starting price of less than $10,000.
Its lightweight, hyper-affordable electric cars are specifically designed for these shorter trips, which account for 79 percent of all trips in the U.S.
“We believe that local EVs represent the most important emerging vehicle category,” says Detweiler. “Our mission is to provide a practical and efficient alternative to traditional vehicles, meeting the needs of everyday travel.”
By building our vehicles locally, specifically out of Newlab Detroit at Michigan Central, the company says it’s supporting the local economy and ensuring that production aligns with the “high standards of quality and innovation the city is known for.”
“If we can solve the transportation challenges here, we believe we can replicate our success in cities across the globe,” Detweiler says. “Strut is poised to lead a mobility revolution, and Detroit is where it all begins.
