EV Star
GreenPower Motor Company produces a full suite of high-floor and low-floor all-electric heavy-duty and medium-duty vehicles. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, which can accommodate various upfits and bodies for multiple applications. The platform's clean sheet design approach allows the best battery pack placement 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 refrigerated truck's class 4 design's one interior wall structure and higher insulation compared to traditional trucks enable seamless sanitation, better temperature control and a longer life. The EV Star REEFERX provides superior cargo capacity and an industry leading payload to range ratio that is ideal for zero-emission goods and passenger transportation.
GreenPower has partnered with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system. This will allow fleets to easily change to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be capable of wireless charging of 75 kW.
We were capable of testing the EV9 on an unpaved highway for several hours, and found it to be easy to drive, and comfortable to drive long distances. The ride is smooth on ruts and bumps, while the EV9 does a great job of reducing road noise and wind on the highway. The car's acceleration is surprisingly fast, and it comes with adjustable regenerative brakes to enable "one-pedal driving" simply by lifting off the accelerator.
The EV9 has excellent range and can be fully recharged within three hours at home or using any commercial charger. Drivers can choose between two modes of operation including eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode focuses on the torque, cruise control and handling while sport mode maximizes speed. Both modes are enjoyable to drive and offer an unforgettable experience for those who have never driven an electrical vehicle before.
GreenPower provides a variety of other EVs that include a multi-purpose all-electric power scooters minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA-compliant and can be used for executive shuttles, microtransit and transit vanpools, buses, and paratransit vehicles.
GreenPower is already producing about 10 EV Star buses a month for the Jacksonville Transit Authority, which is attempting to replace their fleet of old diesel vehicles with 100 electric vehicles. With the Biden Administration planning to electrify schools across the nation, GreenPower plans on ramping production to meet the demand. Their EV Star bus is the first of its kind to be tested in Altoona and FMVSS-certified, Buy America compliant and ADA compliant. This means that they are eligible for federal transit assistance grants. Check back when we follow the AV Star on its tour of demonstration later this year. We will share more details on this innovative EV!
