DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (UAE), 6 April 2023 – NWTN Inc. (Nasdaq: NWTN), an eco-conscious mobility technology company bringing passenger-centric green premium mobility solutions to the world ("NWTN"), today are proud to announce that its first electric vehicle (EV) assembly facility located in the Khalifa Economic Zone Abu Dhabi (‘KEZAD’) was successfully accredited with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 - Integrated Management System (‘IMS’). The ISO certifications represent a commitment to high standards of quality management, environmental management, and safety management.

The IMS standard is based on a number of QHSE management principles including a strong customer focus, the commitment and motivation of top management, a process approach and continual improvement.

The ISO IMS accreditation helps improve service for customers, as continual improvement ensures that NWTN’s business operations becomes more efficient and maintains a high standard of service delivery. This will support NWTN’s goal of being customer centric in the international electric vehicle market.

NWTN is extremely proud of this achievement as it will enable its KEZAD facility to continually improve the quality of its products and services, which in turn increases the satisfaction of customers, employees, shareholders, and suppliers. As the first UAE-based EV company listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, NWTN has received strong financial and policy support from the local government.

NWTN completed construction of its facility in KEAZD at the end of 2022. The facility measures approximately 270,000 square feet and received its commercial and industrial licences in February of 2023. The KEZAD facility enables NWTN to address the rapidly growing demand for EVs in the UAE and the Middle East, promote green mobility, and accelerate the sustainable energy transformation in the UAE. At present, the production line is nearly complete, and NWTN has been working with BASF, the chemical company for paint surface refinishing as well as manufacturing safety training.

These developments at NWTN's plant in KEZAD indicates that this UAE-headquartered emerging company is progressing smoothly. Thanks to the unique capital and location advantages of the UAE as well as opportunities to capitalize on an advanced supply chain system in China, NWTN believes it has the potential to become a dazzling pearl in the global new energy industry chain.

In another development, NWTN completed a customer order with the delivery of 10 range-extended electric vehicles (R-EEV) this week. The delivery continues NWTN’s plan to provide the UAE market with a range of innovative products and solutions to promote the region’s transformation to sustainable energy. The R-EEVs are uniquely suited to the UAE market. The vehicle’s range-extended technology overcomes the problems of limited charging facilities in the UAE and the long distances often travelled in the country.
