GreenPower Receives Follow-On Order for 10 EV Star Passenger Vans
GreenPower Motor Company Inc. a leading manufacturer and distributor of purpose-built, all-electric, zero-emission medium and heavy-duty vehicles serving the cargo and delivery market, shuttle and transit space and school bus sector headquartered in Vancouver, B.C., announced an order for 10 EV Star Passenger Vans to be delivered to Washington University for on-campus student transportation.
The St. Louis university has ordered 10 GreenPower EV Star Passenger Vans with rear ADA BraunAbility lifts and Q’STRAINT wheelchair securements along with front end bike racks for maximum student transportation and mobility options on campus.
"We are excited to receive this second order from Washington University," said Claus Tritt, GreenPower's Vice President of Medium-Duty and Commercial Sales. "The University has been providing student transportation on campus for more than two years now with five EV Star Passenger Vans. This second group of ten all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission GreenPower vehicles will allow the college to provide additional safe, sustainable and healthy transportation for its students."
The multi-purpose, zero-emission EV Star Passenger Van has established the new standard of performance, safety and sustainability for the shuttle and transit space with a range of up to 150 miles (241 km) and dual charging capabilities as a standard feature. It is purpose-built on the EV Star Cab & Chassis platform to be an all-electric vehicle with the most versatile configuration and carrying capacity in its class, and it comes with an electric bus door for easy accessibility. Dealing with GreenPower as the single manufacturing entity provides for ease of warranty claims, service and overall customer experience.
