From the Heart of Germany to the Gates of Europe
Sitdriv GmbH was founded by Günter Rood in Wuppertal, Germany in August 2018 in order to develop and bring to market a new vehicle for seamless mobility: the Sitdriver.
To optimize our network, we later expanded via the coastal hub of Wilhelmshaven – connecting players in a growing network of European specialists.
Today, we are taking the next logical step. By relocating to Transsylvania in 2026, we position ourselves in one of Europe’s fastest-growing economic regions.
Different location. Same dedication.
We look forward to shaping the future with you from our new European home.
