Electric Vehicles International's medium- and heavy-duty trucks have been approved by the California Air Resources Board as zero emission vehicles.
This includes its Freightliner Custom Chassis model EVI-WI and Daimler Freightliner M2 Model EVI-MD. The vehicles are also certified by the Department of Transportation.

"With this approval, our customers will be eligible for various state and federal rebates and incentives," said Steve Riley, vice president of sales and marketing.

The California Air Resources Board, through the Clean Vehicle Rebate Program, will be offering rebates of $20,000 per vehicle beginning mid-March 2010. These rebates, which can be combined with other incentives, will be available on a first-come basis, lower the upfront costs and accelerate the payback period for fleet operators and other customers.

EVI focuses on zero emission electric vehicle development, manufacturing and deployment. In November 2009, EVI opened its new worldwide headquarters and primary U.S. manufacturing plant in Stockton, Calif.
