The company's founder has a racing background, which may contribute to the durability and quality of Silence's products. The battery, not just limited to vehicles, can also be utilized for energy storage in homes, supporting renewable energy sources. The battery system enables bidirectional charging, allowing users to keep their homes powered during outages or use it for various purposes depending on personal preferences.

Silence offers a range of products, including motorcycles for delivery and passengers, as well as microcars with different speed options. The company's core competencies lie in four areas: vehicle manufacturing, battery development as a service, a connected platform for sharing services, and energy storage solutions for homes using their batteries.

To address the affordability challenge in the electric vehicle market, Silence provides a unique battery subscription model. This allows users to purchase vehicles without the battery and rent it separately, potentially reducing the overall cost of electric vehicles. The company is open to collaborating with other vehicle manufacturers to adopt their battery technology, creating a standardized approach across the industry.

Silence aims to launch its electric cars in Spain in the coming months, targeting a competitive price point, with plans to expand to other European countries. The company envisions a future where electric vehicles are not only costeffective but also offer flexible leasing options, making sustainable transportation more accessible to a broader audience.

While addressing the possibility of highspeed charging, Silence emphasizes that their battery technology supports it, and their goal is to make charging convenient without the need for specialized connectors. The company is continually working on improvements and exploring different leasing models, with the ultimate goal of making electric vehicles more affordable and widespread.

Silence has a strategic investor, Aiona, one of the largest companies in Spain, which provides support and resources. The company is focused on gradual expansion into European markets, having already established a presence in countries like Switzerland, the UK, France, and Italy. However, they currently do not have plans to enter the Chinese or US markets.
