Ev Dynamics Electric Delivery Vehicles Begin Road Testing by One of the World’s Largest Food Service Companies
Ev Dynamics has already dispatched more than 1,000 buses and luxury coaches globally
Ev Dynamics (Holdings) Limited , a developer and manufacturer of new energy vehicles (NEVs), announced that one of the largest food service companies in the world has begun road testing 10 of its 6-meter electric delivery trucks in Mexico City.
The customer’s current delivery fleet supports one of the world’s broadest distribution networks, with thousands of points of sale and tens of thousands of routes across 33 countries.
The vehicles’ fully equipped and configured Ev Dynamics e-chassis and cab were purchased by the customer and delivered to Mexico in April. The customer installed the rear storage container on the chassis and added customer branding, including boldly displaying “Vehículo Eléctrico” across both side panels.
“We see this on-road evaluation by the customer’s delivery personnel as the final step toward a major global vehicle supply agreement with this multinational conglomerate,” stated Ev Dynamics CEO, Miguel Valldecabres. “Our EV technology supports their commitment to environmentally friendly last-mile deliveries like no other solution on the road today, from the right price point and flexible customization to the best technology, performance and reliability.”
The last-mile delivery vehicles are based on Ev Dynamics’ proprietary e-platform chassis that was designed specifically for the rapid development of NEVs. The e-platform chassis houses the drivetrain, battery and vehicle control unit upon which an OEM can easily install an existing vehicle body.
This turn-key approach also limits the regulatory approvals required to establish new vehicle designs and a specialized NEV manufacturing facility, resulting in lower development costs and faster time-to-market.
Demonstrating the flexibly of the platform’s customization, for this new customer Ev Dynamics also designed and integrated a special battery charging system, cooling system and battery casing.
