History

Askoll EVA was founded in 2014 after two years of preparing development within Askoll Group.[5] First e-bike and electric scooter models were launched in 2015.[6] In 2016, the company presented a prototype for an electric microcar (Askoll Elò).[7] The parent company sold a part of its main business in order to fund the EV activities.[8]

In 2017, Askoll EVA entered the French market with an own branch and received an order from Austrian Post.[9] That year, the company stopped its micro car project, started a collaboration with Italian scooter sharing provider MiMoto and launched two modified scooter models for professional delivery purposes (eSpro).[10][2]

In 2018, Askoll EVA went public (Alternative Investment Market AIM Italy).[11] Furthermore, a partnership with Spanish scooter sharing provider Cooltra began.[12] In 2019, a range of e-bike drive-trains for OEM markets was released.[13]

In 2020, during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, Askoll EVA had to suspend business operations for six weeks following a lockdown order by the Italian government.[14][15] As a result of the pandemic, business plummeted dramatically in the first half-year of 2020 (sales down 62%).[16] In summer 2020, Askoll EVA launched its NGS scooter models, an evolution of the eS models with new design, quieter drive and bluetooth connectivity.[17]
