greenpower mobility (straight from the source) - All-Energy Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles

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

EV Star is a zero-emission vehicle that has a high degree of customization. It's also FTA certified and Buy America compliant. It provides a wide range of options, ADA wheelchair provisions, and cargo delivery configurations.

EV Star

GreenPower Motor Company produces a full line of high-floor as well as low-floor all-electric heavy-duty and medium-duty vehicles. The EV Star Cab & Chassis is their flagship model, and it is able to be adapted to meet a variety of applications. The platform's clean sheet design allows the best battery pack placement and a lower center of gravity, which results 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 trucks have a single interior wall structure, and higher insulation than traditional trucks, allows for seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer service life. The EV Star REEFERX provides superior capacity for cargo and an industry-leading payload to allow for 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 move to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star is also capable of wireless charging up to 75 kW.

We had the chance to test drive the EV9 for a few hours on a local highway and found it easy to drive and comfortable for long distances. The EV9 can block wind and road noise while driving along the highway. It rides smoothly over ruts and humps. The car's acceleration is surprisingly quick, and it features adjustable regenerative brakes to enable "one-pedal driving" simply by lifting off the accelerator.

The EV9 has a great range and can be fully recharged within three hours at home, or using any commercial charger. The driver has the option of choosing between two operating modes - eco mode and sport mode. Eco mode prioritizes the green power as well as cruise control and handling, while sport mode increases speed. Both are a lot of fun to drive and offer an experience unlike any other for anyone that has not driven an electric vehicle before.

In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other electric vehicles, including a multi-purpose electric minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA compliant and can be used as an executive shuttle, transit or micro-transit bus, vanpool, 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. With the Biden Administration aiming to electrify school buses across the country, GreenPower plans on ramping production to meet demand. Their EV Star buses are green power mobility scooters any good the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and FMVSS certified. They are green power mobility scooters any good Buy America compliant, and ADA conforming. This makes them eligible for federal transit grants. Stay tuned as we follow the AV Star on its tour of demonstration later in the year. We will be sure to give more details about this innovative EV!
