First Fully Electric 4×4 Vehicles Rolled Out in Samoa, Powering Local Communities in
partnership with Ford Hyundai Samoa and the United Nations Development Program.
BOSSCAP Group through its subsidiary AUSEV are proud to announce their
groundbreaking involvement in the 2024 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting
(CHOGM) in Samoa. Taking the global stage by storm, AUSEV is rolling out the first-ever
fully electric 4×4 ute vehicles into Samoa, marking a significant milestone in the transition to
sustainable transportation and energy solutions.
The F-150 Lightning, a cutting-edge, fully electric 4×4 vehicle, is the start of the initiative. Not
only will these vehicles be in use throughout the CHOGM event, supporting key logistical
efforts, but their advanced battery technology also holds the potential to benefit the local
Samoan community long after the event concludes.
In a historic first for Samoa, the F-150 Lightning’s battery system has the capability to power
homes in village communities for up to a week, bringing clean, reliable energy to areas that
may otherwise face energy shortages. This initiative highlights the vehicle’s versatility
beyond just transportation, it’s a source of power and sustainability for the region.
Edward Kocwa, CEO of Bosscap Group, said, “We’re thrilled to showcase the power of
Australian innovation on the global stage at CHOGM, while also making a lasting impact on
the local communities in Samoa. The F-150 Lightning’s unique battery technology aligns
perfectly with our vision of sovereignty and sustainability for the Pacific region.”
The project exemplifies AUSEV’s commitment to using renewable energy and innovative
vehicle technologies to empower communities, support local development, and reduce
reliance on fossil fuels. With plans to continue rolling out the F-150 Lightning in other Pacific
Island nations, this initiative is a key part of AUSEV’s broader strategy to promote
sustainability and economic development across the Pacific.
This collaboration between AUSEV and Ford Hyundai Samoa along with the Samoan
government underscores the critical role Australian businesses can play in driving positive
environmental and social change.
