Rush Truck Centers will begin selling and servicing Blue Arc battery-electric delivery vehicles at select locations early next year.
The Shyft Groups' truck combines a Class 5 EV chassis with a lightweight aluminum dump body, designed for construction, utilities, snow removal and landscaping applications.
The first pre-order for Shyft's all-electric medium-duty Class 3, 4, and 5 walk-in delivery vans comes from Randy Marion Automotive Group, one of the largest dealer groups in the Carolinas.
The Power Cube offers a mobile, customizable, commercial-grade EV charger that does not need to be connected to the grid.
The Proterra Powered H-Series battery system will provide the Blue Arc electric delivery van with an approximate range of 150 to 175 miles on a single charge.
The Shyft Group plans to bring to market an all-electric, purpose-built Class 3 chassis platform designed to serve a wide array of medium-duty truck markets, from last-mile delivery fleets to work trucks, passenger buses, recreational vehicles, and more.
Several parcel delivery companies have placed orders for more than 3,000 Utilimaster Velocity-F2 purpose-built delivery vehicles from Shyft.
The shift in major volume from B2B to B2C deliveries, record e-commerce volume, transport of the coronavirus vaccine, vehicle production capacity, and chassis supply will be factors affecting parcel delivery fleets in 2021, says Chad Heminover, president, Shyft Fleet Vehicles & Services.
Shyft's go-to-market Utilimaster brand is producing its first production order of electric vehicles for two leading parcel delivery companies on its new flexible body assembly line.
