Transformation
This year, the company was rebranded from LCV Baltic to Hoobrid to emphasise the company's and its team's transformation. In addition, Hoobrid launched the 3D configurator to make the customer experience more seamless.
Our Story
In 2020 young entrepreneurs Paulius Balčiūnas and Donatas Prekeris founded the company LCV Baltic. From the get-go, the duo constantly seeks to be at the avant-garde of the transport market by developing a business that provides market-creating products, services and solutions focusing on seamless, transparent and headache-free experiences for the clients.
Starting from the light commercial vehicle segment, the company quickly penetrated the medium and heavy commercial vehicle market and established itself as the leader in just under a year.
In 2022 as the company transformed into a fully developed market leader, the team decided to rebrand the company to Hoobrid to show the company's transformation externally.
Hoobrid seeks to encapsulate the spirit of innovation and audacity. Drawing from the Greek words "hubris", meaning extreme pride or self-confidence, and "hybrid", signifying the combination of two different elements, the name is a nod to the company's bold approach and dedication to creating groundbreaking, composite solutions. The fusion of these two concepts within the name Hoobrid powerfully communicates the company's commitment to pushing boundaries and harnessing disparate elements in novel ways.
The Hoobrid logo blends strict and technical design for reliability with plastic forms for flexibility. It represents the company's high standards, trustworthiness, and adaptability.
Hoobrid embodies the idea of daring innovation and flexible solutions, cohesively capturing the company's ethos and direction.
