Olympian rejects today's mundane and over-standardized car experience. We challenge the 40-year status-quo in automotive design, and bring aesthetic, simplicity and color back to the cars. We are manufacturing electric vehicles with our innovative 'modular' vehicle & drivetrain architecture (MVDS), providing Olympian with strong cost and lead-time advantages compared to legacy automakers like Tesla and Ford. Olympian is disrupting 120+ years old automotive industry and targeting to capture 7% market share in the U.S. automotive market by 2030. Olympian developed a fully-decoupled, modular, EV drivetrain system (eMVDS) that provides a 'Lego-like' vehicle architecture. Built on 4-core-hardware and 2-core software modules, Olympus eMVDS platform unlocks 80% reduction in tooling & machinery costs and built ~60% faster production lead time.

Next-generation, modular electric vehicles

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We make electric vehicles with a unique modular vehicle and drivetrain system called eMVDS. It's a Lego-like architecture that drastically cuts tooling costs and speeds up production. Our cars are art-deco inspired, designed to break away from the bland, uniform designs dominating the market today.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We currently live and work in New York, NY and would base the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose New York because it's our home and offers access to talent and manufacturing partners we've already built relationships with. Staying here keeps us close to the supply chain and customers we serve.
