As of December 2022, SuperSprings International has been supporting the Indianapolis-based non-profit organization with suspension components for all BUVs now built and shipped worldwide.
"The BUV has been designed from the ground up to be rugged, affordable, and easy to operate and maintain."
Institute for Affordable Transportationās Executive Director, Will Austin, shared āThe BUV has been designed from the ground up to be rugged, affordable, and easy to operate and maintain. Our partnership with SSI delivers a superior design for our suspension. The SumoSpring offers us many advantages including increased driver comfort, enhanced durability, and long life which allows BUVs to deliver hope in the developing world through rural transport.ā
Will and his team provide a simple, low cost, and highly practical vehicle that is entirely based on the needs of the community it serves. That means a solution with longevity and durability as primary focuses where the vehicle is as tough as the terrain itās made for. BUVs are designed for a wide range of countries so there are varying needs and solutions that make sense. One country may need to have something like a truck bed to haul food and water to communities that live tens of miles from the source. In another, the greatest need is getting crafted goods and crops to market in order for the community to create a revenue stream.
Speaking on the partnership, SSI President, Adam Weisner commented, āMore than anything else at SSI, weāre passionate about people and making lifeās journey better for everyone however we can. This is engrained in the fabric of our company, and supporting an incredible organization like BUV is an honor. Will and the team are enriching the lives of those that donāt have easy access to vehicles like we do here in the US and weāre proud to be a small part of that.ā
