EV Star
GreenPower Motor Company produces a complete line of high-floor and low-floor all-electric 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 clean sheet design allows for the optimal placement of battery packs and lower center of gravity, which results in higher payload to range ratios.
The EV Star REEFERX is designed to be used for mid to last mile refrigerated delivery as well as catering applications. The refrigerated trucks in class 4 have a single interior wall structure, and higher insulation than conventional trucks, enable seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer service life. The EV Star REEFERX offers superior capacity for cargo and an industry leading payload to range ratio for zero-emission goods and passenger transportation.
GreenPower joined forces with Perrone Robotics in order to equip the EV Star with TONY (To navigate you) autonomous vehicle systems, which will allow fleets to move to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star can also be wirelessly charging up to 75 kW.
We were capable of testing the EV9 on the local highway for a few hours, and found it to be easy to drive and comfortable to drive long distances. The EV9 can block the sound of traffic and wind on the highway. It glides effortlessly over ruts and humps. The vehicle's acceleration is surprising quick, and it features adjustable regenerative brakes that permit "one-pedal driving" simply by lifting off the accelerator.
The EV9 provides a large range and can be charged in three hours or less at home, or using any commercial charger. Drivers can choose between two modes of operation that include eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode focuses on the cruise control and torque, 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 who has never been in an electric vehicle before.
In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other e-vehicles available, including a multi-purpose electric mini bus, 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 is already producing around 10 EV Star buses per month for the Jacksonville Transit Authority, which is attempting to replace their fleet of older diesel vehicles with 100 all-electric vehicles. GreenPower will increase production to meet the demands of the Biden Administration which wants 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 compliant. This will make them eligible for federal transit grants. We will be following the AV Star as it begins its public demonstration tour later this year. We will provide more information on this innovative EV!
