REE’s x-by-wire system provides full digital control of all vehicle functions, eliminating mechanical connections between the REEcorners, the steering wheel and pedals in the passenger compartment, and the wheels and braking systems. REE said the design offers a more responsive and smoother driving experience, which participants can experience during the Ride & Drive.
Built-in redundancies, both hardware and software, facilitate each REEcorner's fail-operational function. REE facilitates vehicle maneuverability, better handling, and safety in adverse conditions through the independent control of each REEcorner and the all-wheel drive and all-wheel steer.

Unlike traditional automotive architectures, REE’s fully x-by-wire platform is designed from the ground up to be compatible with autonomous driving systems, the company said.
Driving the REE P7-C
REE said the P7-C provides a next-generation driving experience focused on industry-leading data for fleet managers and enhanced maneuverability for drivers. It has a tight turn radius and a low step height.
The Ride & Drive, on Wednesday and Thursday, will allow drivers to experience firsthand the SDV’s handling and operational efficiencies, which are optimized for urban and commercial applications.
REE’s SDVs now offer an end-to-end solution that combines leading customer-centric platform technology with advanced telematics to provide a future-proofed vehicle ecosystem.
Fleet operators may benefit from deep data insights that drive predictive maintenance, improve uptime, and reduce the total cost of ownership.
REE’s P7 recently received California’s Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) approval, unlocking up to $60,000 in incentives for California Fleets, under current state tax incentives (assuming no impact by recent federal government actions).
With this approval, fleet operators in California can seek to qualify for up to $60,000 in point-of-sale incentives per vehicle, which may significantly reduce the cost of transitioning to zero-emission transportation. Administered by Calstart and funded by the California Air Resources Board (CARB), HVIP lowers the cost of clean commercial vehicles to accelerate their adoption across the state.
