The provider of electrification solutions for commercial fleets has changed its name and expanded to meet the growing demand for medium-duty commercial EVs.
Fluid Truck, a national truck rental platform, will incorporate 600 Lightning Electric vehicles onto its platform, with availability starting in the fourth quarter.
Lightning Systems’ electric commercial vehicles are built on familiar chassis such as the Ford Transit 350HD, Ford E-450, Ford F-550, and Chevrolet 6500XD.
The new Lightning Electric Ford F-550 will be available in gross vehicle weight ratings (GVWR) of 17,500 to 19,500 pounds, ideal for delivery trucks and shuttle buses.
Octillion Power Systems is collaborating with Lightning Systems to produce Class 6 electric trucks (up to 12.5 tons) capable of supporting “middle-mile” delivery logistics between warehouses and distribution centers.
Equipped with 192 kWh of high-energy-density, liquid-cooled DC battery storage in a package designed to be installed in a vehicle or trailer for mobile deployment, Lightning Mobile can be rapidly deployed to provide fast roadside charging to support the operation of electric fleet vehicles.
The Lightning Electric models are being provided to the hospital system by Wondries Fleet Group, a leading fleet dealer in California. All 12 are Class 3 delivery vans and were purchased under the terms of a California state contract.
A collaboration between Plug Power and Lightning Systems enables both companies to offer an electric, fuel cell-powered Class 6 truck capable of supporting middle-mile delivery logistics between warehouses and distribution centers.
The proceeds from the new funding will be used to ramp up production to fulfill new orders for electric powertrains for Ford Transits, Ford E-450s, Ford F-59 step vans, Chevrolet Low Cab Forward 6500XD trucks, and Lightning Electric city buses.
Lightning Systems has introduced a comprehensive offering of AC and DC fast charge charging stations to improve accessibility to electric vehicle charging infrastructure for fleets.
