GreenPower Motor Company manufactures a complete range of heavy- and medium-duty all-electric vehicles, including lower-floor and green mobility power (yogaasanas.Science) high-floor models. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, which can be used to accommodate many different body designs and upgrades for a variety of applications. The design of the platform is based on a clean paper sheet, which allows for optimum positioning of the battery pack and a lower center of gravity. This results in higher payload/range ratios.
The EV Star REEFERX is designed to serve mid-to-last mile refrigerated delivery and catering applications. The refrigerated trucks of class 4' one interior wall structure, and higher insulation than traditional trucks, enable seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer service life. The EV Star REEFERX provides superior capacity for cargo and a payload that is industry-leading to reach the range of zero-emission transport of passengers or goods.
GreenPower has partnered with Perrone Robotics in order to equip the EV Star with TONY (To navigate you) autonomous vehicle systems. This will enable fleets to easily make the transition to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be able of wireless charging at 75 kW.
We had the chance to test the EV9 for several hours on a local highway and found it to be easy to drive and comfortable for long distances. The EV9 can block wind and road noise while driving on the highway. It rides smoothly over bumps and ruts. The car's acceleration is surprisingly quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that allow "one-pedal driving" simply by releasing the accelerator.
The EV9 has a great range and can be fully charged in just three hours at home, or with any commercial charger. Drivers can choose between two modes of operation including eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode prioritizes the torque as well as cruise control and handling while sport mode maximizes speed. Both modes are fun to drive, and offer an experience unlike any other for those who've never been in a vehicle with an electrical system before.
GreenPower provides a variety of other EVs which include a multi-purpose electric minibus, called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA-compliant and can be used as executive shuttles, microtransit or transit buses, vanpools, or paratransit vehicles.
GreenPower is currently producing around 10 EV Star buses a month for the Jacksonville Transit Authority, which is working to replace their fleet of diesel vehicles with 100 fully electric vehicles. GreenPower will increase production to meet the demand of the Biden Administration who is planning to electrify all school buses in America. Their EV Star bus is the first of its kind to be tested in Altoona and FMVSS-certified. Buy America compliant and ADA conforming. They will be eligible for federal transit grants. Keep an eye on us for updates as we follow the AV Star on its tour of demonstration later this year. We'll be sure to share more details on this innovative EV!
