Our flagship MellowVan is a purpose-built, three-wheeled electric delivery vehicle for e-commerce, courier, retail and food delivery operations. It combines secure cargo space, low energy consumption and a compact footprint with driver comfort and branding opportunities. Our passenger vehicle, the MellowCab, extends this approach to short-distance transport and shuttle services.
Designed and manufactured in South Africa, our vehicles bring together local engineering, proprietary vehicle design and practical experience from demanding commercial operations. MellowVans vehicles have collectively travelled more than 3.5 million kilometres, with deployments across more than 13 countries. Customers include Takealot, supporting one of Africa’s largest e-commerce delivery networks.
With European cargo homologation and UK type approval secured, MellowVans is expanding internationally while building South African manufacturing capacity and skilled employment.
Our mission is to make clean, affordable and reliable urban transport commercially viable at scale.
