RAC Electric Vehicles

RAC Electric Vehicles Inc. is a Taiwan-licensed car manufacturer, and the first company in Taiwan to have successfully developed an all-electric low-floor city bus. The RAC e-bus is the first electric commercial vehicle in Taiwan to be officially road-licensed by the Ministry of Transportation and Communications, and it is a zero-emission green veh... icle that brings enormous cost-saving potential to the public transport system. RAC was found in 2005 by Mr. Raymond Tsai, with the goal of developing green and innovative commercial vehicles for the next generation. RAC effectively put together a test platform for the EV industry in Taiwan to blossom. At the end of 2008, Mr. Alex Tsai, the current chairman, significantly raised the level of RAC¡s capital structure to invest specifically in the development and commercialization of pure e-buses. The father-son partnership firmly established RAC¡s leadership position in commercial electric vehicle within a few short years. Most parts and components on the e-bus are electronically linked through an RAC-designed VCU, thanks to Taiwan¡s expertise in electronics, and can be monitored and controlled via a touch panel on driver¡s display. This differentiate RAC from other bus makers, and takes Taiwan¡s EV power-train design capability to a whole new level.Read More
