the pitch
While the Saleen S1 is brand new, the Saleen business is far from new. The company has a 40-year history with the Ford Motor Company, where they design, develop, manufacture, and sell high-performance vehicles based on the chassis of the Ford Mustang, Ford F-150, and new Ford Bronco. While these Ford vehicles are part of the Saleen Signature Series, we are continuing our Saleen Original Series with the Saleen S1, a two-seater sports car entirely designed and developed by Saleen Automotive.
Saleen is led by Steve Saleen, who is recognized worldwide for his expertise in specialized vehicle manufacturing, vehicle certification processes, and mass customization. In total, Steve Saleen has been an inventor to 25 patents across multiple facets of automobile design, development, and manufacturing.
The Problem & Our solution
Bringing a new series of vehicles to the marketplace is almost impossible unless you are a large, established, global manufacturer. However, Saleen has been making original vehicles for years, commencing with the Saleen S7 Supercar in 2000, Ford GT 2004-2006, and the Dodge Viper.
The Saleen S1 is the next chapter in the Saleen Original Series. Seeing the need for a true “Driver’s Car,” Steve Saleen and team started with a clean sheet of paper and designed the S1 based on 40 years of racing experience.
**The Saleen S1 is in the prototype phase and is not currently available on the market.
THE MARKET & OUR TRACTION
We believe Saleen is positioned well in a growing market, as the luxury premium performance car market was estimated to be $617 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2023 to 2030, reaching over $1 trillion by 2030. Saleen hopes to capitalize on this growth by launching the Saleen Original Series, first with the S1 and then introducing additional models in the following years. Saleen is continuing to see strong demand throughout the pandemic and is optimistic about the growth of its largest revenue stream, the Saleen Signature Series. (Source, Source)
Saleen generates revenue by designing, developing, and manufacturing automobiles. Currently, the majority of our revenue comes from the Saleen Signature Series, which includes globally popular Ford automobiles such as the Ford Mustang, Ford F-150, and Ford Bronco. The company’s newest revenue stream will come from the production and sales of the Saleen Original Series, which are designed, developed, and produced entirely in-house by Saleen Automotive.
SALEEN DISTRIBUTION
We believe Saleen has a significant advantage in the marketplace over new competitors because of our existing distribution channels. We’ve established a dealership network of 80 Ford dealers and are continuously expanding as needed. By utilizing these dealers, Saleen has direct access into an existing customer base that provides tremendous opportunities. We also plan to open additional “Saleen Premiere” dealerships specifically aimed at marketing the Saleen Original Series like the S1. Saleen Premiere dealerships, much like the Ford dealers, are full service dealers that offer financing, service, and warranty. In addition to the dealership distribution model, Saleen also plans to expand on its previous 3e concept (Irvine) and open additional Saleen 3e centers at select locations. Saleen 3e Centers are direct to consumer showrooms (3e = Entertain, Educate, and Experience) that showcase the vehicles and the entire Saleen experience.
*Saleen S7
With its 40 year racing legacy, it makes perfect sense for Saleen to be present at appropriate racing venues to further expand its reach. By utilizing “Ride and Drives,” potentially new customers will be able to experience the awesome Saleen S1 first hand and turn the “interested” into “buyers.”
WHY INVEST
We believe Saleen is an established and extremely successful company, meaning an investor will invest not only in a new car series, but also in a company already generating revenue through its relationship with Ford Motor Company, including a 40-year history of racing and manufacturing. In addition to this, an investor will be getting a stake in the Saleen Original Series, starting with the S1, a high-performance American-made two-seater sports car entirely developed and designed by Saleen Automotive.
Saleen is fundraising to bring the S1 to market and eventually launch other cars in the Saleen Original Series. Investments in Saleen will help with S1 development, certification, manufacturing, the launch of Saleen 3e Centers, and the expansion of Saleen Original Series with other models.
Join Saleen and bring a new line of high-performance cars to the world! We create experiences, relationships, and lifestyles, centered around innovative, stylish, and high performance vehicles.
