Fast EV Introduces the EV06, Inspired by Its Groundbreaking Electric Vehicle Wheel Designed for Project Arrow
MONTREAL, March 13, 2024 – Fastco Canada, Canada’s leading manufacturer and wholesale distributor of wheels, tires, and accessories, today announced the launch of its newest Fast EV wheel designed for electric vehicles. Crafted with cutting-edge technology and designed to enhance range and performance, the EV06 is set to optimize the driving experience for electric vehicle enthusiasts.
Originally designed by Fastco Canada for Project Arrow, the first, original, full-build zero-emission concept vehicle launched by the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association (APMA) of Canada, the EV06 wheel embodies the same spirit of innovation as the Arrow itself.
The Flow-Form technology used to create the EV06’s main structure results in a wheel that is lightweight, extremely strong, and perfectly suited to the higher weight and load forces of electric vehicles. Furthermore, the low mass ABS polymer aero inserts that clad its exterior dramatically reduce aerodynamic drag and turbulence to ensure that the vehicle achieves or exceeds its stated range capabilities, addressing a common concern for EV drivers.
We are thrilled to introduce the EV06 to the market, offering another revolutionary solution for electric vehicle owners," said Ian Pavelko, Director of Technical Services at Fastco Canada. "Inspired by the success of the APMA Project Arrow wheel, the EV06 embodies our commitment to innovation and sustainability, driving the future of automotive technology.
Key features of the EV06 wheel include:
- Flow-Form technology results in low weight with high load capacity and extended durability
- Highly efficient aerodynamic design to help reduce energy consumption and increase range.
- Designed and engineered in Canada, reflecting Fastco's dedication to quality and craftsmanship.
- Direct Fit applications tailored for specific EV and hybrid models, ensuring seamless integration.
Fastco Canada's EV06 represents a significant leap forward in electric vehicle wheel design, offering leading edge efficiency, performance, and style. With its innovative features, the EV06 is poised to set new standards in the EV industry.
