Tropical Mobility Signs MoU With Zero Emisión RD To Service Tesla Electric Vehicles in Jamaica

  • Tropical Mobility, an electric vehicle dealer majority owned by Tropical Battery Company (TROPICAL), has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Santo Domingo-based Zero Emisión RD, to provide service on Tesla electric vehicles in Jamaica.
  • Zero Emisión RD has been the leading electric vehicle (EV) dealer and service center in the Dominican Republic since the company was founded in 2016. It has been a major proponent of the shift to sustainable transport solutions in the neighbouring Caribbean country. The company has sold nearly 700 EVs over the past eight years, including more than 320 Tesla models.
  • Under the terms of the MoU, Zero Emisión RD and Tropical Mobility will cooperate on training and technical support to deliver world-class service to battery electric vehicle drivers in Jamaica, including Tesla owners who had no local service up until now.
  • The two companies will also work together to promote the adoption of specific electric vehicle brands and electric mobility solutions in Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, and to advance the development of sustainable battery lifecycle solutions in both countries and across the wider Caribbean region.
  • This forms part of the company’s broad strategy to expand further in the sustainable energy market by providing related products and services to grow the business.
