Fiat’s Tris Electric Vehicle Sets New Standard for Zero-Emission Last-Mile Logistics in Africa and the Middle East
Fiat has launched Tris, an innovative three-wheeled electric vehicle (EV) designed to deliver zero-emission transport solutions for last-mile delivery and micro-logistics.
Developed with modularity, simplicity, and sustainability in mind, Tris represents a bold step in urban mobility for underserved and fast-growing markets.
The name Tris reflects its three wheels, three configurations, and distinctive trio of LED lights. The vehicle comes in three modular formats—chassis-cabin, flatbed, and pickup—allowing for maximum adaptability across various commercial needs.
Initially being rolled out in Africa and the Middle East, Tris is positioned to play a key role in Fiat’s global growth strategy.
“Tris is more than just a vehicle – it’s a breakthrough in how we think about urban mobility,” said Olivier Francois, CEO and Chief Marketing Officer at Stellantis, Fiat’s parent company.
“As cities expand and the demand for clean, accessible transport intensifies, Tris offers a radically simple yet powerful tool for small businesses, gig workers, and underserved communities.”
Manufactured in Morocco, Tris will be introduced across the MEA (Middle East and Africa) region, with Europe under consideration as the next market.
Designed with the realities of dense urban environments in mind, the compact vehicle is 3.17 metres long with a tight 3.05-metre turning radius, making it ideal for narrow streets and congested cityscapes.
The rear cargo area provides 2.25 square metres of usable space and can carry a standard euro pallet, with a maximum payload of 540 kg and a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 1,025 kg.
Powered by a 6.9 kWh lithium battery, Tris offers a homologated range of 90 km, sufficient for daily urban delivery routes.
According to Samir Cherfan, Stellantis CEO for the Middle East and Africa, micromobility is no longer confined to personal transport—it is now a catalyst for economic empowerment and local development.
“Micromobility supports entrepreneurs, strengthens communities, and helps solve urban congestion—especially as the MEA region’s urban population grows by 3% annually,” he noted.
Cherfan added that Tris represents a scalable, inclusive, and sustainable solution that addresses both logistical challenges and socioeconomic disparities, especially in rural and underserved areas.
Tris is expected to be a key contributor to Stellantis’ mission of decarbonising mobility while boosting economic inclusion, paving the way for a smarter, cleaner, and more connected urban future.
