The 10 Most Scariest Things About Greenpower Mobility

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

Greenpower develops, builds and distributes a range of high-floor and low-floor all-electric medium and heavy-duty vehicles. This includes transit buses and school buses, as well as cargo buses and shuttles.

EV Star is a zero-emission vehicle that has a high degree of personalization. It's also fully FTA certified and Buy America compliant. It has a range that is unbeatable, Green mobility scooter ADA wheelchair provisions, and cargo delivery configurations.

GreenPower Motor Company manufactures a complete line of medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicles, which include lower-floor electric scooter Green and high-floor models. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, electric scooter Green which is able to accommodate a variety of bodies and upfits for a variety of applications. The design of the platform is based on a simple sheet of paper, which allows for optimal placement of the battery and a lower center-of-gravity. This results in better payload/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 truck's class 4 design's one wall structure in the interior and higher insulation than traditional trucks allows for seamless sanitation, improved temperature control, and a longer life. The EV Star REEFERX offers superior cargo capacity and a payload that is industry-leading to reach the range of zero-emission freight or passenger transport.

GreenPower has partnered with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system, which will allow fleets to easily transition to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be able to support wireless charging of 75 kW.

We were capable of testing the EV9 on an unpaved highway for several hours and found it to be simple to drive and comfortable to drive for long distances. The EV9 can be used to block road noise and wind while driving along the highway. It rides smoothly over ruts and humps. The car's acceleration is surprisingly quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that allow "one-pedal driving" simply by taking off the accelerator.

The EV9 has excellent range and can be fully recharged in just three hours at home, or with any commercial charger. The driver can choose from two operating modes: eco mode and sport mode. The eco mode is a preference for torque and cruise control and the sport mode maximizes speed and handling. Both modes are enjoyable to drive and offer a unique experience for those who've never experienced driving an electric wheel scooter vehicle before.

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

GreenPower produces about 10 EV Star buses per month for Jacksonville Transit Authority. The Jacksonville Transit Authority is replacing their older diesel vehicles fleet with 100 electric vehicles. GreenPower will increase production to meet the needs 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 by Altoona and FMVSS-certified, Buy America compliant and ADA certified. This means they will be eligible for federal assistance in transit. Keep an eye on us as we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later in the year. We will be sure to provide more information on this innovative EV!
