Revoltz Showcases PORTO Micro-EV to Israeli Government
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL β December 29, 2025 β In a significant move toward modernizing urban logistics, Revoltz Ltd., a subsidiary of Charging Robotics Inc., has successfully demonstrated its PORTO electric micro-mobility vehicle to an Israeli government entity. The presentation, held in Tel Aviv, showcased the three-wheeled electric cargo vehicle's potential to revolutionize last-mile delivery services, particularly for national operations like mail and parcel distribution.
The demonstration highlights a growing interest from government and commercial sectors in finding sustainable and efficient solutions for navigating congested city centers. The PORTO, designed specifically for the challenges of last-mile logistics, represents a new class of vehicle bridging the gap between traditional delivery vans and smaller, less capable micro-mobility options.
A New Tool for Urban Logistics
The PORTO is engineered to address the specific pain points of urban delivery fleets. With a compact, three-wheeled design, it offers superior agility and stability compared to both two-wheeled scooters and larger four-wheeled vans, allowing it to navigate narrow streets and dense traffic with ease. According to Revoltz, a key feature is its exceptional cargo capacity, which is comparable to that of a small car, making it ideal for carrying mail, packages, and other goods without the large footprint of a conventional vehicle.
During the demonstration, Revoltz officials emphasized the vehicle's operational efficiency. The PORTO is designed to run for a full day on a single charge, eliminating the need for mid-shift charging and ensuring uninterrupted delivery routes. This capability, combined with its zero-emission electric powertrain, presents a compelling case for entities looking to reduce their carbon footprint and operational costs simultaneously. Furthermore, Israeli regulations permit the vehicle to be operated by riders aged 16 and older without a specific license, significantly lowering the barrier to entry for new drivers and expanding the potential labor pool for delivery services.
Discussions with the government representatives reportedly focused on the PORTO's potential integration into existing fleets. The vehicle is seen as a viable replacement for traditional delivery vans used by mail carriers, offering a path to enhanced efficiency, reduced maintenance and fuel costs, and a significant contribution to national green logistics initiatives.
Strategic Vision and Market Potential
Amir Zaid, CEO and Co-founder of Revoltz, framed the demonstration as a critical step in the company's growth. "This demonstration marks an exciting step forward for Revoltz as we engage with key national institutions in Israel," he stated. Zaid expressed his belief that the PORTOβs capabilities could benefit similar urban services worldwide, addressing the universal challenges of last-mile delivery.
"The PORTO is designed to address the unique challenges of last-mile delivery and can add to the challenges of last mile additional capabilities, and we would be very pleased to continue our expansion to the current government entity and additional ones in Israel and abroad,β Zaid added, signaling ambitious plans for both domestic and international markets.
The strategic value of this engagement is amplified by Revoltz's relationship with its parent company, Charging Robotics Inc. (OTC: CHEV), which holds a 51.07% majority stake. Charging Robotics specializes in advanced wireless charging technologies for electric vehicles, including robotic systems that can autonomously navigate under a vehicle to charge it. The synergy between Revoltz's electric vehicles and Charging Robotics' automated charging infrastructure presents a powerful, integrated ecosystem for fleet operators. A fleet of PORTO vehicles could potentially be managed with automated, overnight wireless charging, further streamlining operations and reducing manual labor.
This demonstration serves as a proof-of-concept not just for the PORTO vehicle itself, but for a broader vision of automated, electrified urban logistics. As cities around the world grapple with traffic congestion and environmental mandates, solutions like the one proposed by Revoltz and Charging Robotics are poised to attract significant attention from both public and private sector fleet operators seeking a competitive and sustainable edge.
