EV Star
GreenPower Motor Company produces a full line of high-floor as well as low-floor all-electric medium and heavy-duty vehicles. The EV Star Cab & Chassis is their flagship vehicle, and it is able to be adapted to meet a variety of applications. The platform's clean sheet design allows for the optimal placement of battery packs and lower center of gravity resulting in higher payload to range ratios.
The EV Star REEFERX was designed for mid-to last mile refrigerated deliveries as well as catering applications. The refrigerated trucks of class 4 have a single interior wall structure and a higher insulation level than traditional trucks, allows for seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer lifespan. The EV Star REEFERX has a higher capacity for cargo, and an industry-leading payload to allow for zero emission freight or passenger transport.
GreenPower joined forces with Perrone Robotics in order to equip the EV Star with TONY (To navigate you) autonomous vehicle systems. This will enable fleets to transition to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be capable of wireless charging of 75 kW.
We had the opportunity to test the EV9 for a few hours on a local freeway, 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 is smooth on bumps and ruts. The acceleration is surprisingly fast and the car has adjustable regenerative braking to enable "one pedal driving" by simply taking off the accelerator.
The EV9 has excellent range and can be fully charged within three hours at home, or using any commercial charger. Drivers can choose between two operating modes that include eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode focuses on torque and cruise control while the sport mode is designed to maximize speed and handling. Both are a lot of fun to drive and provide a unique driving experience for anyone that has never been in an electric vehicle before.
greenpower scooter offers a variety of other electric vehicles that include a multi-purpose all-electric minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA-compliant and can be used as executive shuttles, microtransit and transit vanpools, buses, or paratransit vehicles.
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 all-electric cars. With the Biden Administration looking to electrify school buses across the country, GreenPower plans on ramping up production to meet demand. Their EV Star buses are the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and FMVSS certified, Buy America compliant, and ADA compliant. This means that they are eligible for federal assistance in transit. Keep an eye on us when we follow the AV Star on its tour of demonstration later in the year. We will provide more details about this revolutionary green electric scooter vehicle.
