There are many benefits of owning and traveling in an RV, such as flexibility, convenience, comfort, family appeal, affordability, the lure of the outdoors and adaptability. The people who cannot afford an RV or are not frequent travelers, for them, the RVs are available for the rent. People with recreational vehicles can stay overnight which is commonly known as recreational vehicle park or RV stop. More and more RV parks are expanding each year that provide many facilities.

A report from ResearchAndMarkets said that: “The Recreational Vehicle (RV) Market in North America 2018-2022 is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 8.18% during the period 2018-2022. The installation of solar technology in RVs will be a key trend driving the growth of the market. With the installation of external power generators that incurred additional costs and were not environment friendly, RV manufacturers are investing in manufacturing environment-friendly vehicles with solar generators. According to the report, the substantial cost savings by using RVs over conventional modes of vacation will drive the market growth. Consumers in the market are demanding for road trips and vacations that are cost-effective. For cost-effective planning of trips, consumers can choose among options such as driving own car and staying at a hotel, owning a RV, and renting a RV.” Active EV stocks in news today include: Triad Pro Innovators, Inc. (OTCPK: TPII), Volcon Inc. (NASDAQ: VLCN), Niu Technologies (NASDAQ: NIU), Volta Inc. (NYSE: VLTA), Arcimoto, Inc.® (NASDAQ: FUV).

Another report from Goldstein Research added: “According to our global market study on the basis of extensive primary and secondary research: “One of the major trends in the global recreational vehicle (RV) industry is the eco-retro recreational vehicle where the vehicle is fitted with solar panels to power it’s onboard accessories and a computer and GPS-system will position the panels to maximize their solar-intake. In addition, the kitchen will swivel, allowing for meal prep inside or out. According to the report, major driving factor for recreational vehicle (RV) industry is the increase of travel and tourism among people especially the younger generation. Consumers want to travel but don’t want to invest in hotels and search for comfortableness.”

Triad Pro Innovators, Inc. (OTCPK: TPII) BREAKING NEWS – Triad Pro Innovators, Inc. Provides Sales, Distribution, and Production Update for SPREE Solar-Powered Golf Carts – Sales and production ramping up as the first SPREE distributor begins accepting orders – Triad Pro Innovators, Inc. is pleased to provide a progress update on the sales, distribution, and production of its SPREE solar-powered golf carts—the world’s first solar-powered golf cart.

First SPREE distributor now accepting deliveries and is anxious for more – After entering into a distribution agreement with Phoenix-based San Tan in September, the company is pleased to announce that the initial response to the SPREE has been overwhelmingly positive.

Company CEO Murray Goldenberg stated, “San Tan has started to accept delivery of production units and is anxious to receive additional carts, which are being completed.” The company forecasts an initial demand of approximately 300 units per year through San Tan, delivering an incremental boost to its existing direct sales channel.

Ramping up sales and production to meet a $2.52 billion market as ports clear – The company is now actively pursuing additional distributors to add to its national network as it prepares to ramp up production at its new Las Vegas facility.

Murray Goldenberg notes, “Supply chain issues caused by port backlogs have been a major impediment to bringing additional SPREE units onto the market. Without the timely delivery of vital components, we’ve had to hold back on generating demand that we couldn’t meet.”

“Now progress is being made in clearing port backlogs, we have confidence in our ability to meet demand and are now scaling up sales and production efforts in response,” Goldenberg continued. The golf cart market is expected to reach U.S. $2.52 Billion by 2026, according to Mordor Intelligence. The company is confident that SPREE’s market-leading benefits will enable it to capture a significant portion of this.

Big interest in fast-charging eCell technology that outlives the life of the cart – “As word of mouth spreads, customer interest in our solar-powered SPREE golf cart is growing due to the unbeatable advantages it has over traditional golf carts,” said Murray Goldenberg, CEO of Triad Pro Innovators.

“Besides its solar charging ability, one of the main factors driving interest in the SPREE is our maintenance-free eCell technology which delivers 30,000+ recharge cycles. This allows the eCell to outlive the life of the cart. Golf courses and other frequent use operators are quick to recognize this as a major advantage over traditional battery banks that require ongoing maintenance and replacement throughout the life of the cart,” Goldenberg added.

Niu Technologies (NASDAQ: NIU), the world’s leading provider of smart urban mobility solutions, recently announced its financial results for the third quarter 2021. Dr. Yan Li, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented: “We delivered a strong quarter with China sales volume up by 59.9% amid weaker economic conditions. Our expansion strategy in product offerings and retail coverage combined with targeted marketing and promotional activities continued to be effective in driving sales volume growth and increasing our market share. Our cost optimization initiatives have shown positive results since September and we expect to benefit more in the future quarters. The widened product portfolio and channel coverage also laid a strong foundation for our growth in Q4 and 2022.”

Dr. Li continued, “The decrease of sales volume in the international markets was mainly caused by the impact of COVID-19 during the third quarter and the ongoing difficulties in international shipping, which we expect to improve in Q4. In Q3, we successfully launched our kick-scooter KQi3 in the international markets and received orders for more than 15,000 units during the third quarter. In September, we started to deliver kick-scooters to the international markets and there will be more deliveries in the fourth quarter.
