The 10 Most Terrifying Things About Greenpower Mobility

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

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

EV Star is a zero-emission vehicle that offers a lot of customisation. It's also FTA certified and Buy America compliant. It provides a wide range of options, ADA wheelchair provisions, and cargo delivery setups.

EV Star

GreenPower Motor Company produces a full suite of high-floor and low-floor all-electric heavy-duty and medium-duty vehicles. Their flagship vehicle is the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, which is able to accommodate various body designs and upgrades for a variety of applications. The platform's clean sheet design approach allows for the optimal placement of battery packs and lower center of gravity, which results in better payload-to-range ratios.

The EV Star REEFERX is designed to be used for mid-to-last mile refrigerated delivery and catering applications. The class 4 refrigerated trucks have a single interior wall structure, and higher insulation than conventional trucks, enable seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer lifespan. The EV Star REEFERX provides superior cargo capacity and an industry leading payload-to-range ratio for zero emission passenger transport and goods.

GreenPower has collaborated with Perrone Robotics to up-fit the EV Star with their TONY (To Navigate You) autonomous vehicle system. This will allow fleets to seamlessly transition to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be able to support wireless charging up to 75 kW.

We had the opportunity to test drive the EV9 for several hours on a local highway and found it to be easy to drive and comfortable for long distances. The EV9 is able to suppress wind and road noise while on the highway. It rides smoothly over ruts and humps. The acceleration is surprisingly quick, and the car comes with adjustable regenerative braking to enable "one pedal driving" by simply lifting off of the accelerator.

The EV9 has a great range and can be fully charged in just three hours at home, or with any commercial charger. Drivers can select between two modes of operation that include eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode focuses on the cruise control and Greenpower scooter torque, while the sport mode increases speed and handling. Both are a lot of fun to drive and offer a unique driving experience for anyone who has never driven an electric vehicle before.

GreenPower offers several other eVehicles that include a multi-purpose all-electric minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA-compliant and can be used as executive shuttles, microtransit or transit vanpools, buses, and paratransit vehicles.

greenpower electric scooters produces approximately 10 EV Star buses per month for Jacksonville Transit Authority. The Jacksonville Transit Authority is replacing their older diesel vehicles fleet with 100 electric vehicles. With the Biden Administration aiming to electrify schools across the nation, GreenPower plans on ramping up production to meet demand. Their EV Star buses are the first of their kind to be Altoona tested and FMVSS certified. They are Buy America compliant, and ADA compliant. This makes them eligible for federal transit grants. Stay tuned for updates as we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later in the year. We will share more details on this exciting EV.
