Manifesto:

Delise Automotive is committed to bringing longevity and adaptability to the forefront of the sustainability discussion. Once we unlock the potential for vehicles to continuously and functionally update themselves, the automotive singularity will be reached. What is that, you ask? The seminal moment when transportation becomes able to evolve into faster, safer, and more capable levels of utility. Cars which are worth keeping around and updating, because they are not regarded as depreciating assets. This shift in philosophy will be more efficient and thus more productive for all who participate.

First Principles:

Regenerative. Future proof every aspect with the ability to improve over time.

Adaptable. Enable operations and business models to shift dynamically and remain relevant.

Design. All Product & Engineering decisions are driven by enhancing residual value and long-term quality.
