Star Metro - Worksport Provides 2026 Business Update: Clean Energy Products Shipping Now, OEM and Major Distribution Conversations Deepen, Record Growth Forecasted

WEST SENECA, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / January 13, 2026 / Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ:WKSP) ("Worksport" or the "Company"), U.S.-based technology and manufacturing company focused on clean energy solutions and automotive accessories for consumer and reseller channels, is proud to provide its "Year Ahead" corporate update for 2026. Following a transformation in 2025 where the Company achieved record revenue growth and hit gross margin targets earlier than anticipated, Worksport is now executing on mass commercialization across all business units.

Worksport Chief Executive Officer, Steven Rossi commented:

"Over the past year, we focused on scaling U.S. manufacturing and launching multiple product lines while building a durable sales and distribution network. As we enter 2026, our SOLIS and COR systems are shipping, we are advancing COR toward major home improvement retailers, potential EV OEM partners are actively evaluating our technology, and Aetherlux heat pumps are progressing toward commercialization. With momentum across our core business and subsidiaries, we believe 2026 will be the most significant growth year in Worksport's history."

1. Clean Energy Launch: COR™ and SOLIS™ Shipping Now, Marketing to Ramp Up

Worksport confirms that its flagship power duo, the SOLIS^™ Solar Tonneau Cover and COR^™ Portable Energy System, are shipping to customers.

2. B2B Update: Partnering with Master Distributors and Big Box Retailers

Worksport has aggressively expanded its sales footprint beyond direct-to-consumer channels to secure long-term volume.

3. Aetherlux: 2026 Commercialization of ZeroFrost^™ Technology

Terravis Energy, a Worksport subsidiary, is preparing for the commercial launch of its Aetherlux Heat Pump this year.

• The Breakthrough: Unlike standard heat pumps that fail in extreme cold, the Aetherlux heat pump features proprietary ZeroFrost^™ technology that operates efficiently at temperatures as low as -57°F (-50°C) without defrost cycles.

• Market Opportunity: This innovation opens a multi-hundred-million-dollar opportunity in the global HVAC market, positioning Worksport as a leader in residential and industrial decarbonization.

The Company anticipates significant updates on this product line throughout 2026.

4. OEM Partnership Potential: Worksport Solis Integrated into EV Pickup Truck Battery

Worksport's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) division is exploring multiple high-level integrations to bring its technology to the factory floor of EV Manufacturers. Currently, SOLIS and COR function as third party accessories, such as the application of SOLIScoversto Rivian trucks, announced in December 2025. The SOLIS system generates power that feeds into Worksport's COR battery system. With OEM integration, it is believed that SOLIS will be able to integrate directly with the vehicle battery, to increase last-mile range of EV pickup trucks.

Worksport has a signed agreement with Hyundai to explore this for the future Hyundai EV pickup truck, and the Company is exploring conversations with other EV pickup trucks, like Slate and Rivian.

5. Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance Update

Worksport expects to provide an updated financial outlook during the first quarter of 2026. The Company notes that gross margins expanded by more than 2,000 basis points in 2025, while revenue grew at triple-digit rates over the past two years. Management anticipates continued strong revenue growth, alongside further improvements in gross margin performance.

"We are building a manufacturing powerhouse in the USA," concluded Rossi. "With products shipping, partners engaging, and the market shifting to renewables, Worksport is ready to deliver for our shareholders in 2026."
