The Inspiration

After escaping slavery, Lewis Hayden became a pivotal figure against injustice, using his Boston home as a key stop on the Underground Railroad. His bravery established him as a symbol of resilience and determination. Inspired by Hayden, the all-terrain vehicle represents liberation and relentless progress. Like the abolitionist, this UTV is designed to overcome obstacles and break barriers. It embodies self-reliance and resistance, honoring those who fight for freedom. Whether in difficult terrains or urban settings, this vehicle reflects Hayden's spirit and reminds us that true strength is the resolve to persevere against all challenges.

“Our goal was to embody Lewis Hayden’s indomitable spirit in this UTV. It’s not just a machine—it’s a testament to resilience, liberation, and unstoppable progress. Designed to face any obstacle, it inspires the drive to move forward, no matter the challenges ahead.”

— Ryan Paul, Chief Design Officer, 1854 Motors

  • Dimensions

    The Hayden is engineered to meet the demands of challenging terrains while prioritizing safety and sustainability. It represents a significant advancement in electric search and rescue technology, ensuring that responders can navigate the most difficult environments with ease and efficiency. This innovative vehicle is equipped with all-terrain capability, allowing it to tackle everything.

  • Lightweight Construction

    Each vehicle is engineered for durability and efficiency, guaranteeing reliable operation in search and rescue missions. Advanced materials and AI-driven design minimize ecological impact, aligning with our vision for sustainability. By prioritizing eco-friendly technology, we ensure that every journey taken in our vehicles supports environmental preservation.

  • Cobalt Free

    We prioritize sustainability in our design. Our electric search and rescue vehicle batteries are free of Rare Earth materials, including cobalt, tied to exploitative mining in places like the Democratic Republic of the Congo. By avoiding these materials, we aim for a cleaner, responsible solution that upholds human rights and environmental integrity, ensuring our vehicles support outdoor adventures without compromise.
