Designed for both efficiency and performance, The Route offers a return on investment unparalleled by competing technologies. Using electric drive, regenerative braking, and a unique approach to onboard power generation using a microturbine, Wrightspeed's Route is a fully integrated and extremely high power system and the first to use a software-controlled "clutchless" transmission.

Started by one of Tesla Motors' founding members and based in Silicon Valley, Wrightspeed has extremely strong competencies in systems-approach design, high-reliability software, and high-power analog electronics.
