Alongside the development of the Hilo ONE, the development of the technology: IRIS (Intelligent Road Illumination System)

A full LED perimeter lighting system delivers a pool of light around the vehicle, making it appear larger to other road users at night.  The distinctive ‘swan neck’ form of the scooter ofver the front wheel provides a distinctive graphic from a distance, helping distance the product from a slew of low-quality ‘white label’ products flooding the market.

The design of the eScooter helped attract ex Aston Martin CEO, and ex Nissan COO Dr. Andy Palmer to join Hilo Ev as their chairperson, cementing the companies position in a rapidly evolving sector.
