AYRO, Inc. announced the 2023 AYRO Vanish (the "Vanish") has initiated certification testing by the California Air Resources Board (C.A.R.B.), which has established the most rigorous zero-emissions vehicle standards in the country. C.A.R.B. is the lead agency for climate change programs, with a mission to protect the public from the harmful effects of air pollution, and to develop programs and actions to fight climate change. Originally established in California in 1967, C.A.R. B. regulations have been adopted by seventeen other states, including Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington, as well as Washington D.C. The Vanish is a utility low-speed electric vehicle (LSEV) with a lightweight architecture that limits vehicle weight and maximizes payload.

The Vanish offers highly adaptable configurations and is designed to serve as a sustainable alternative to gas-powered vehicles typically used in commercial fleets. The vehicle first entered homologation in May, for which testing included the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 500 and 111 and Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 500. Vehicles that undergo C. AYRO testing and approval must demonstrate compliance with the California Code of regulations, Section 1962.2, Title 13 for "Zero Emission Vehicle Standards for 2018 through 2025 Model Year passenger Cars, Light-Duty Trucks, and Medium-Duty Vehicles." AYRO has already been honored with two prominent awards in 2023, the Red Dot Award for Product Design and the Frost and Sullivan North American New Product Innovation Award.

Additionally, AYRO has secured a design patent and two utility patents for the Vanish and has filed several others, along with numerous foundational patents in the field of sustainability.
