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.

Transportation of vehicles
If we do a conversion or any work with Your vehicles, we are responsible for transporting them from the dealership to Hoobrid and back. Our job is to make any conversion a hassle-free experience for the client and the dealership. That's why our vehicle transporter, C and CE category drivers, will pick up and return Your vehicle without any added cost. Our drivers are experienced and trained to handle all vehicles, ensuring they are transported safely and securely. We also have insurance coverage for any unforeseen incidents during transportation.

3D configurator
To easily access our products and services, we have developed a 3D configurator which is constantly updated with our newest range of products. This tool helps Hoobrid, dealerships and clients have instant access to the products, their dimensions, weights, configurations and most importantly - their visualization in 3D space. With this tool, our clients can instantly get a quote with complete information about the conversion or the product. The 3D configurator also allows clients to customize their products according to their specific needs and preferences, making buying more personalized and efficient. This tool has dramatically improved our customer experience and has helped us stay ahead of the competition in the industry.
In order to demonstrate our outstanding work ethic, we strive to obtain certifications from van and truck manufacturers as well as ISO.
