GreenPower Motor Company manufactures a complete range of heavy- and medium-duty all-electric vehicles, including models with lower and high floors. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, which can be used to accommodate various body designs and upgrades for a variety of applications. The design of the platform is based on a clear paper that allows for optimum positioning of the battery pack and a lower center of gravity. This leads to better range/payload ratios.
The EV Star REEFERX was designed for green Power Electric scooter mid-to last mile refrigerated deliveries 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 enable seamless sanitation, improved temperature control and a more extended life. The EV Star REEFERX delivers superior cargo capacity and a world-class payload-to-range ratio for zero-emission passenger and green power electric mobility Scooter cargo transportation.
GreenPower partnered with Perrone Robotics in order to equip the EV Star with TONY (To navigate you) autonomous vehicle systems, which will allow fleets to transition 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 easy to drive, and comfortable to drive over long distances. The ride is smooth on ruts and bumps, while the EV9 does a great job of suppressing wind and road noise on the highway. The acceleration is extremely fast and the car has adjustable regenerative braking to enable "one pedal driving" by simply taking off the accelerator.
The EV9 offers a great range and can be charged in three hours or less at home, or by using any commercial charger. Drivers can select between two operating modes including eco mode and Greenpower Mobility sports mode. Eco mode is a great way to increase the torque and cruise control, as well as handling, while sport mode increases speed. Both modes are fun to drive and offer an experience unlike any other for electric mobility scooter fastest those who have never experienced driving an electric vehicle before.
In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other e-vehicle offerings such as a multi-purpose, all-electric mini bus, called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA-compliant and can be used for executive shuttles, transit or microtransit vanpools, buses, and paratransit vehicles.
GreenPower produces around 10 EV Star buses per month for Jacksonville Transit Authority. The Jacksonville Transit Authority is replacing their fleet of diesel vehicles with 100 electric cars. GreenPower will increase production to meet the needs of the Biden Administration which wants to electrify all school buses in America. Their EV Star buses are the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and FMVSS certified, Buy America compliant, and ADA compliant. This means they will be eligible for federal assistance in transit. Stay tuned when we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later this year. We will provide more details about this revolutionary electric vehicle.
