Rush Truck Centers will begin selling and servicing Blue Arc battery-electric delivery vehicles at select locations early next year.
With the EVantage suite of thermal management products, Modine provides standard and purpose-built solutions that meet the needs of customer applications across the commercial vehicle segment.
The auto dealership worked with the Shyft Group to place an initial order for the all-electric Class 3, 4, and 5 delivery vans. Fleets can now pre-order the EV vans.
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 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 pilot program vehicles are road ready and will be in use through 2023.
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.
All-aluminum bodies will be built and available as an upfit solution for all-electric utility vehicles at DuraMag's Waterville, Maine, facility.
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.
The facility will primarily be used for Strobes-R-Us specialty vehicle fleet upfit and retail sales, while providing the Company’s Utilimaster brand with additional regional manufacturing and assembly capacity.
