Thunder Power’s SUV EV Concept
There is not as much known about the SUV at this point, since it is still in the concept phase.

A glimpse of the SUV was offered at Frankfurt and we look forward to learning more in the near future.
Who Is Thunder Power?
From Thunder Power’s website: Recognizing that the traditional gasoline internal combustion engine would no longer be viable in the longterm, Wellen Sham was inspired to find a better way. He spent 10 years in researching sustainable cost effective and energy efficient automotive solutions. In 2011 he took control of the Taiwanese listed group Motomax and reorganized it, from a traditional consumer led business to a company focused on innovation and technology, which ultimately led to the creation of Thunder Power.”
