Our journey, your future

2011FUNDATION OF THE LECARD

Lecard, founded in 2011 by Flávio Figueiredo Assis, is a benefits card administrator offering solutions such as food, meal, and transportation vouchers for companies and public entities.

2021EXPANSION TO SÃO PAULO

Flávio moves to Alphaville/SP to oversee the rapid growth of the LECARD, which reached over 1 billion reais in annual transactions.

2022SALE OF THE LECARD AND BIRTH OF LECAR

With the sale of the LECARD, Flávio decides to invest all his assets in the dream of creating the Lecar, focused on sustainable mobility. The rest of 2022 was dedicated to forming the team and developing the initial concepts and technologies of the company.

2023DEVELOPMENT OF THE FIRST PROTOTYPE

The team begins to assemble the first prototype of the Lecar, the Model 459, an 100% electric car.

2024TECHNOLOGICAL REDIRECTION

Due to global trends, the Lecar discontinues the 100% electric project and focuses on developing the Lecar 459 Hybrid Flex with Range Extender, adapting to market needs.

2024ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE FACTORY IN ESPÍRITO SANTO

Flávio announces the construction of a factory in Sooretama/ES, with production expected to start in 2026, reinforcing the commitment to the national industry.

2024CONSOLIDATION OF THE PROJECT

The Lecar finalizes the design and technologies of the Lecar 459 Hybrid Flex with Range Extender, preparing for the prototyping phase and future large-scale production.

Meet the Lecar 459

Car with 100% electric traction and without a plug

The Lecar product line shares the same powertrain, consisting of a Horse flex-fuel combustion engine and a WEG power generator. This system does not directly drive the vehicle; instead, it functions as an electric generator to recharge a small battery pack, which powers the electric motor responsible for the car's traction.

NATIONAL CONNECTION

(BRAZILIAN PARTNERS AND INCENTIVES)

We don't make a car alone. That's why we count on strategic partners from the global supply chain, such as Horse, WEG, Pirelli, Winston Power and Hepu. We also count on the support of incentives from the MDIC's sectoral program, MOVER, tax benefits from the SUDENE region and INVEST/ES, as well as public investment funds such as BNDES, EMBRAPII, FINEP and BANDES.
