AUSTIN, Texas, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Volcon ePowersports (Nasdaq: VLCN) ("Volcon" or the "Company"), the first all-electric, off-road powersports company, is pleased to announce the launch of a new floor plan financing and retail financing program provided by Dealer Direct Financial, a department of First Community Bank. This initiative will enable Volcon's network of dealers to finance their inventory purchases, providing them with enhanced access to the Company’s groundbreaking electric off-road vehicles.

About Volcon

Based in the Austin, Texas area, Volcon was founded as the first all-electric power sports company producing high-quality and sustainable electric vehicles for the outdoor community. Volcon electric vehicles are the future of off-roading, not only because of their environmental benefits but also because of their near-silent operation, which allows for a more immersive outdoor experience.

Volcon's vehicle roadmap includes both motorcycles and UTVs. Its first product, the innovative Grunt, began shipping to customers in late 2021 and combines a fat-tired physique with high-torque electric power and a near-silent drive train. The Volcon Grunt EVO, an evolution of the original Grunt with a belt drive, an improved suspension, and seat, began shipping to customers in October 2023. The Brat is Volcon's first foray into the wildly popular eBike market for both on-road and off-road riding and is currently being delivered to dealers across North America. In 2024, Volcon entered the rapidly expanding LUV and UTV market and shipped its first production MN1 unit in October 2024. The new MN1 and HF1 products empower the driver to explore the outdoors in a new and unique way that gas-powered units cannot. They offer the same thrilling performance of a standard LUV / UTV without the noise (or pollution), allowing the driver to explore the outdoors with all their senses.
