The 10 Most Scariest Things About Greenpower Mobility

Greenpower Mobility - All-Energy Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles

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

EV Star is a highly customizable zero-emission vehicle that's fully FTA certified, Altoona tested and Buy America certified. It comes with a world-class range and ADA wheelchair provisions. It also offers cargo delivery options.

EV Star

GreenPower Motor Company manufactures a complete range of heavy and medium-duty electric vehicles, which include lower-floor and high-floor models. The EV Star Cab & Chassis is their flagship model, and can be adapted to meet a variety of applications. The design of the platform is based on a simple paper that allows for optimal placement of the battery and a lower center-of-gravity. This results in higher payload/range ratios.

The EV Star REEFERX is designed to meet the needs of mid to last mile refrigerated delivery as well as catering applications. The refrigerated trucks of class 4' one interior wall structure and higher insulation than traditional trucks, allows for seamless sanitation and better temperature control. They also have a longer life span. The EV Star REEFERX has a higher capacity for cargo and a payload that is industry-leading to reach the range of zero-emission transport of passengers or goods.

GreenPower has partnered with Perrone Robotics in order to equip the EV Star with TONY (To navigate you) autonomous vehicle systems, which will enable fleets to move to autonomous vehicles. The AV Star will also be able to support wireless charging up to 75 kW.

We were allowed to test drive the EV9 on a local highway for several hours. We found it to be easy to drive and comfortable to drive long distances. The EV9 can be used to block the sound of traffic and wind driving on the highway. It is smooth on bumps and ruts. The vehicle's acceleration is surprising quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that allow "one-pedal driving" simply by lifting off the accelerator.

The EV9 provides a large range and can be charged in just three hours or less at home, or by using any commercial charger. Drivers have the option of choosing between two operating modes including eco mode and sports mode. Eco mode is a great way to increase the scooter green power and cruise control, as well as handling, while sport mode increases speed. Both modes are fun to drive and mobility power scooters provide a unique experience for those who have never driven an electrical vehicle before.

In addition to the EV9, GreenPower has several other e-vehicles available, such as a multi-purpose, all-electric minibus called the EV Star. The EV Star is ADA compliant and can be used as an executive shuttle, micro-transit or transit bus, vanpool or paratransit vehicle.

GreenPower is currently producing around 10 EV Star buses per month for Green power scooters the Jacksonville Transit Authority, which is attempting to replace their fleet of older diesel vehicles with 100 all-electric vehicles. With the Biden Administration planning to electrify school buses across the country, GreenPower plans on ramping production to meet demand. Their EV Star bus is the first of its kind to be tested in Altoona and FMVSS-certified, Buy America compliant and ADA compliant. This will make them eligible for federal transit grants. Check back when we follow the AV Star on its demonstration tour later this year. We will be sure to provide more information on this amazing electric vehicle!
