The 10 Most Scariest Things About Greenpower Mobility

Greenpower Mobility - All-green energy mobility scooters Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles

Greenpower creates manufactures and distributes an entire range of heavy- and medium-duty electric vehicles. This includes transit buses as well as school buses, as cargo buses and shuttles.

EV Star is a zero-emission vehicle with a high degree of customisation. It's also fully FTA certified and Buy America compliant. It offers a range that is world-class and ADA wheelchair provisions. It also provides cargo delivery options.

EV Star

GreenPower Motor Company manufactures a complete range of heavy and medium-duty all-electric vehicles, including lower-floor and high-floor models. The EV Star Cab & Chassis is their flagship model, and it can be customized to meet a variety of applications. The platform's design philosophy of clean sheets allows the best battery pack placement and a lower center of gravity, which results in higher payload to range ratios.

The EV Star REEFERX was designed for mid-to-last mile refrigerated deliveries as well as catering applications. The refrigerated truck's class 4 design's one wall structure inside and higher insulation than traditional trucks enable seamless sanitation, improved temperature control and a longer life. The EV Star REEFERX offers superior capacity for cargo and an industry leading payload-to-range ratio for zero-emission goods and passenger transportation.

GreenPower has collaborated with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system, which will allow fleets to easily change to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star is also capable of wireless charging up to 75 kW.

We were able to test drive the EV9 on the local highway for a few hours, and found it to be easy to drive, and comfortable to drive over long distances. The ride is smooth over bumps and ruts, and the EV9 does a great job of reducing road noise and wind on the highway. The acceleration of the vehicle is astonishingly quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that permit "one-pedal driving" simply by taking off the accelerator.

The EV9 has a wide range and can be recharged in just three hours or less at home, or with any commercial charger. Drivers can choose between two operating modes: eco mode and green power mobility sports mode. The eco mode prioritizes the torque and cruise control while the sport mode is designed to maximize speed and handling. Both are a lot of fun to drive and provide a unique driving experience for those who have not driven an electric vehicle before.

In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other e-vehicles available, such as a multi-purpose, all-electric power scooters 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 a paratransit vehicle.

GreenPower produces about 10 EV Star busses a month for the 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 who is planning 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 conforming. This means that they are eligible for federal transit assistance grants. Keep an eye on us for updates as we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later this year. We will share more information on this innovative EV.
