SEA Electric is a local success story – in the electrification of vans and light to medium commercial trucks.
Having developed their SEA Drive in Victoria, they are rapidly expanding into international markets including North American, New Zealand, South Africa, Thailand and Europe.
They are expanding from they Dandenong HQ to also establish an assembly plant in the La Trobe Valley. A great initiative for a community affected by the closure of old coal infrastructure.
