Since working with Underscore, the high-performance electric vehicle startup has transitioned from a UK-based design concept to a US-based production model. Apex Motors recently saw the production shift of its iconic AP-0 model from the UK to Miami, Florida and secured a collaboration with the owner of Supercar Rooms Miami. As a result of the partnership and following the launch of the AP-0 initial prototype, Apex Motors has increased its manufacturing capacity to 500 units per year, with the AP-0 targeted market price rising from £150,000 to £290,000+ in just 3 years.
Following the success of the flagship lightweight EV hypercar, Apex Motors have launched it’s predecessor, the AP-1, a road-legal track car with a Ford 2.3L engine. Positioning themselves as a competitor to luxury EV brands like Rimac and Koenigsegg, the company has evolved, recently partnering with Wyclef Jean in a shift toward a more lifestyle-oriented, high-fashion brand.
Skillfully blending artistry, expert knowledge and cutting-edge technology, Apex Motors prides itself on being the new front runner in the elite road car bracket, balancing the need for sustainability with the feel of a genuine racing experience.
We worked closely with their people to create a distinctive brand capable of reflecting the new front runner in the elite road car bracket. Our consultations went deep into the potential audiences for the brand, the proposed design details and how the right brand would be important to realising their lofty ambitions.
Further investigations inspired our brand design strategy, with the main body of the marque taking its symbolism from the unique cross shaped feature that is their rear tail light, and the La Source hairpin from the Spa-Francorchamps Circuit – a Mecca for motor racing enthusiasts worldwide.
