GreenPower Motor Company produces a complete line of high-floor and low-floor all-power electric scooter heavy-duty and medium-duty vehicles. The EV Star Cab & Chassis is their most popular vehicle and it is able to be adapted to meet a variety of applications. The platform's design philosophy of clean sheets allows for optimal battery pack placement and lower center of gravity resulting in better payload to range ratios.

The EV Star REEFERX is designed to serve mid to last mile refrigerated delivery and catering applications. The class 4 refrigerated trucks' one interior wall structure and higher insulation than conventional trucks, allows for greenpower mobility seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer life span. The EV Star REEFERX offers superior capacity for cargo and an industry leading payload to range ratio that is ideal for zero emission passenger transport and goods.

GreenPower has joined forces with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system, which will allow fleets to seamlessly transition to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be able of wireless charging at 75 kW.

We had the chance to test drive the EV9 for a few hours on a local highway and found it to be easy to drive and comfortable for long distances. The ride is smooth and smooth over bumps and ruts, and the EV9 does a great job of reducing the sound of traffic and wind on the highway. The acceleration is extremely fast and the car has adjustable regenerative braking to enable "one pedal driving" by lifting off of the accelerator.

The EV9 has excellent range and can be fully recharged within three hours at home or with any commercial charger. Drivers can select between two operating modes including eco mode and sports mode. The eco mode prioritizes torque and cruise control and the sport mode is designed to maximize speed and handling. Both are fun to drive and provide an unique experience for anyone that has never driven an electric vehicle before.

In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other e-vehicle offerings such as a multi-purpose, all-electric minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA compliant and can be used as an executive shuttle, micro-transit, transit bus, vanpool or paratransit vehicle.

GreenPower produces about 10 EV Star buses per month for Jacksonville Transit Authority. The Jacksonville Transit Authority is replacing their fleet of diesel vehicles with 100 electric cars. With the Biden Administration looking to electrify schools across the nation, GreenPower plans on ramping production to meet demand. Their EV Star buses are the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and green power mobility energy mobility scooters (official Technetbloggers blog) FMVSS certified. They are Buy America compliant, and ADA certified. This makes them eligible for federal transit grants. We will be following the AV Star as it makes its demonstration tour in later this year. We'll be sure to share more details on this innovative EV!
