轻质碳纤维轮毂公司Carbon Revolution计划在美国上市

澳大利亚吉朗的Carbon Revolution计划在与佛罗里达州的投资公司Twin Ridge Capital Acquisition 达成并购协议后在美国上市。

Carbon Revolution成立于2007年，是一家全球性的技术公司和一级OEM供应商，成功地为全球汽车行业提供了创新、商业化和工业化的轻质碳纤维轮毂。

随着全球电动汽车（EV）的大力发展，Carbon Revolution因抓住了移动出行的这一新需求而占据着有利地位。该公司的碳纤维轮毂重量大约是铝制轮毂的一半，预计将有助于增加续航里程——这是电动汽车普及的关键。更轻的车轮有助于抵消较大的电池重量，从而符合关键重量等级限制的要求。

Carbon Revolution的轮毂还比铝制轮毂提供了更好的性能和操控性，并可以降低噪音、振动和声振粗糙度（NVH），同时增加了空气动力学、轮毂尺寸和造型的可选择性。

Carbon Revolution, of Geelong, Australia is planning to become publicly listed in the USA following a merger agreement with Florida-based investment company Twin Ridge Capital Acquisition.

Founded in 2007, Carbon Revolution has successfully commercialised high-performance, technically advanced lightweight carbon fibre wheels for the global automotive industry and has contracts with Ford, Ferrari, General Motors and Renault.

Carbon Revolution is now well-positioned to capture demand in new mobility with the global transition to electric vehicles (EVs). The company’s carbon fibre wheels, which can be up to half the weight of aluminium wheels, are expected to help increase range-a critical barrier to EV uptake. Lighter wheels help offset large battery weight, enabling regulatory compliance with key weight class limits. 

Carbon Revolution’s wheels also provide better performance and handling than aluminium wheels, as well as reduced noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), while increasing options for aerodynamics, wheel sizing and styling. Four of the most recently secured engineering programmes are for electric vehicles.

The company’s technology is protected by 89 granted or pending patents.

When new automotive technologies are introduced, penetration typically begins at the luxury or performance end of the market before transitioning to a point of full adoption as a mass market product, the company observes. Carbon Revolution initially penetrated the performance and premium end of the market with cars that include Ford’s GT and Shelby Mustang GT350R and GT500, Ferrari's 488 Pista, F8 Tributo, SF90 Stradale, 812 Competizione and 296 GTB, Renault's Megane RS Trophy R, and more recently GM's Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Ford has recently announced an additional programme with its 2024 Mustang Dark Horse. The company's technology is protected by 89 granted or pending patents.

“Carbon Revolution is a sector leader in the production of revolutionary carbon fibre wheels, the next-generation of wheel technology, and has an opportunity to play an important role as the global automotive industry accelerates the shift to electric vehicles,” said Dale Morrison, chairman of Twin Ridge Capital Acquisition. “We believe that following this transaction, it will be well-positioned for rapid growth and adoption as it further enhances its automotive solutions, capitalises on market opportunities and continues to accelerate growth as a US-listed public company.”
