The Mullen Five is running behind schedule, but the company will stage the world debut of the Five RS at CES. The automaker isn’t saying much, but the invitation noted this is the “product design world debut” and that suggests Mullen will show the road-going variant – or at least the design of it – in Las Vegas.
While there are more questions than
answers at this point, Mullen introduced a Five RS demonstrator last year. The
prototype was an “ultra-high-performance EV” that featured all-wheel drive and
a combined output in excess of 1,100 hp. This enabled the
crossover to accelerate from 0-60 mph in less than two seconds and onto a
claimed top speed of 322 km/h. The model also had a
“performance-oriented suspension,” beefy brakes, and 21-inch wheels.
The Five was originally slated to go into
production in the fourth quarter of 2023, but that obviously didn’t happen.
Instead, Mullen is now slated to begin building the Five RS in late 2025 with
sales beginning in mid-2026. Additional versions of the Five, including the US$ 55,000 entry-level variant, will then follow.
We’ll learn more when the crossover debuts
on January 9, but the model will be joined by the One cargo van and Three
commercial vehicle. Other highlights will include the Bollinger B1, B2, and B4.
