Camping World Appears to Have Severed its Partnership with Lordstown Motors
Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis has hinted that his relationship with Lordstown Motors may be cooling off.
In a June 18 tweeted response about his connection with the embattled electric vehicle startup, Lemonis said that “We are launching Electric World with an amazing assortment from around the globe” and that “@LordstownMotors will not be a part of that.”
Lemonis and former Lordstown Motors CEO Steve Burns announced in December a joint venture between the two companies. Camping World would provide service operations for Lordstown Motors’ Endurance pickup truck.
RV PRO covered the announcement of the partnership when it was first announced in December 2020, and later followed up with the news of Lordstown’s difficulties here and here.
