Mission Statement

With technical resources world-wide, Samson Motors is poised to advance a series of new technology breakthroughs. Current activities focus on transportation, including aviation technology. Through our on-going efforts, we are developing more useful, efficient, and less costly alternatives to modern transportation.

Using the latest technologies, materials and innovative designs, Samson Motors will introduce ground-air vehicles, three-wheeled road vehicles, as well as hybrid and electric versions of both types. All of these vehicles are designed to deliver affordable driving excitement with a minimal environmental footprint.

Our goal is to become the fastest growing transportation company in the world. Given the current and foreseeable economic situation, our emphasis on smaller, lighter, greener and more affordable vehicles is a winning approach.

Samson’s flagship product is the Switchblade™, a multi-mode vehicle that both drives and flies. Our follow-on products will include ground-only sports vehicles that are intended to be both high-performance and fuel-efficient. Gas powered versions will deliver up to 60 mpg with sports car-like performance. Hybrid and electric vehicles should easily deliver between 70 and 80 mpg.
Through cost effective management of resources, we are advancing at a rapid rate with minimal outside investment. Our consulting team includes many of the leading scientists and engineers in their respective fields. Outstanding results have garnered international attention, including publication and coverage in Scientific American, Discovery Channel Canada, and many others.

The future begins tomorrow, and that future is what one creates. This is true for an individual, a business, and a society. With the continued expansion of modern lifestyles around the globe, we must include a reduction of environmental footprint to maintain or increase the quality of life on our planet. By increasing the use of point-to-point transportation, we can accomplish an increase in transportation speed, a reduction in required infrastructure, a lessening of time in transit, and a reduction in fuel consumption compared to existing transportation models. Samson Motors is positioned to become the leader in the point-to-point transportation market, which will soon become the status quo in 21st century travel.

We are delivering the future.
