The 10 Most Terrifying Things About Greenpower Mobility

Greenpower Mobility - All-Energy Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles

Greenpower creates and manufactures, as well as distributes the entire range of heavy- and medium-duty electric vehicles. This includes school buses, transit buses, cargo buses, buses for cargo, and shuttles.

EV Star is a zero-emission vehicle that has a high degree of customisation. It's also fully FTA certified and Buy America compliant. It offers a range that is world-class and ADA wheelchair provisions. It also provides cargo delivery configurations.

GreenPower Motor Company produces a full suite of high-floor and low-floor all-electric medium and heavy-duty vehicles. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, which can be used to accommodate a variety of body designs and upgrades for greenpower mobility a variety of applications. The platform's clean sheet design allows for the optimal placement of battery packs and a lower center of gravity resulting in better payload-to-range ratios.

The EV Star REEFERX was designed for mid-to last mile refrigerated deliveries as well as catering applications. The class 4 refrigerated truck's one wall structure inside and higher insulation levels compared to traditional trucks enable seamless sanitation, improved temperature control, and a longer life. The EV Star REEFERX offers superior cargo capacity and an industry-leading payload to allow for zero emission goods or passenger transportation.

GreenPower has collaborated with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system. This will allow fleets to quickly change to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star can also be wirelessly charging up to 75 kW.

We were able to test drive the EV9 on a local highway for several hours and found it to be simple to drive and comfortable to drive over long distances. The ride is smooth over bumps and electric scooter green ruts, and the EV9 does an excellent job of reducing the sound of traffic and wind on the highway. The acceleration of the vehicle is astonishingly quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that allow "one-pedal driving" simply by taking off the accelerator.

The EV9 is extremely reliable and can be fully recharged within three hours at home, or with any commercial charger. Drivers can select between two modes of operation that include eco mode and Green mobility scooter sports mode. Eco mode focuses on the cruise control and torque and the sport mode maximizes speed and handling. Both modes are enjoyable to drive and provide a unique experience for those who haven't been in a vehicle with an electrical system before.

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

GreenPower is already producing about 10 EV Star buses a month for the Jacksonville Transit Authority, which is attempting to replace their fleet of older diesel vehicles with 100 fully electric vehicles. With the Biden Administration looking to electrify school buses across the country, GreenPower plans on ramping production to meet the demand. Their EV Star buses are the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and FMVSS certified. They are Buy America compliant, and ADA conforming. This will make them eligible for federal transit grants. Keep an eye on us for updates as we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later this year. We will provide more information on this EV that is truly innovative!
