AMP Holding Receives Order for 18 All-Electric Workhorse Trucks

AMP Trucks has received an order from a major transportation company to supply 18 all-electric Workhorse E-100 Walk In Vans to be deployed in the Houston-Galveston, Texas area.

The U.S. Department Of Energy (DOE) selected this project to improve local air quality in the Houston-Galveston area, which is currently designated as a National Ambient Air Quality Non-Attainment Area.

Noted Steve Burns, CEO of AMP Holding, “Our Workhorse E-100 truck is purpose-built to transform the package delivery vehicle market. Built on our new, narrow track W88 chassis, the trucks come with a 100 kWh Lithium battery pack featuring Panasonic 18650 cells that provide power to a 2200 nm (268 bhp) permanent magnet motor powerful enough to eliminate the need for a transmission.”

The Workhorse E-100 is designed and built to meet the transportation company’s daily duty cycle while delivering a zero-emission driving experience and eliminating the consumption of more than 650,000 gallons of diesel fuel over the vehicle’s projected life.

In addition, AMP’s proprietary onboard telematics capture thousands of data points to measure vehicle performance and efficiency.
