Nathan Armstrong is an engineer, builder, and creator. Born in England, Armstrong moved to California and later set his base in Alberta, Canada.
The journey in the EV industry has been long for Armstrong and includes roles as the Aptera CTO.
More recently, Armstrong started Armstrong Electric Vehicles, and the first product is the EB1, a light electric dirt bike.
We talked about the company, the bike, and much more. And by much more, I mean the role of racing in pushing the EV industry, coexistence between ICE and electric motorcycles, and EV AI!
The conversation was great, and Nathan was very generous in sharing his experience. So, put your headphones on, and enjoy the show.
