SAN DIEGO — Canadian (EV) manufacturer Taiga Motors Corporation announces a milestone with their first deliveries in California. The company’s expansion into the Golden State marks a step forward in its mission to sell in the powersports category. With this recent advancement, Taiga vehicles are now available in the United States’ three prominent boating and EV adoption hubs.
Sam Bruneau, CEO and Co-Founder of Taiga Motors, expressed his excitement, stating, “This is a momentous time for Taiga. Our expansion into California, along with our existing presence in Florida and Texas, establishes Taiga as a key player in the off-road EV sector coast to coast. We are very proud to offer our 100% electric personal watercraft OrcaTM Carbon to Californians that want to explore the state’s stunning waterways in a more sustainable way.”
“As an early adopter of new technology, I already understood the benefits of going electric: the performance, the torque; now I’m looking forward to having this same feeling on an Orca,” explains Slade Fester, Orca Carbon reservation holder based in California. “On the water, the sound and smell of an ICE personal watercraft can be amplified, so I can’t wait to experience the clean and quiet motor of my new Orca.”
Taiga operates a hybrid direct-to-consumer model. With the onboarding of H&H Marine, a new Taiga Service Provider (TSP) located in San Diego, Taiga has now a network of 19 TSPs strategically located in 25 key locations in North America.
“At H&H Marine, we’re thrilled to be part of the Taiga family in San Diego,” says H&H Marine Owner, Jeffrey Hughes. “Their inspiring vision for a sustainable environment without compromises aligns with our commitment to best serve our customers, especially those who seek and support eco-conscious choices when it comes to outdoor recreation.”
As a new TSP, H&H Marine will assist customers in taking ownership of their new vehicle and ensure after-sale service, if required.
Orca Carbon is Taiga’s fully electric personal watercraft made from carbon fiber and equipped with a powerful electric motor. It goes through water with up to 120kW peak power and a top speed of 62mph per hour.
