Hot off the presses! 🚀Check out the inaugural episode of Fleet Equipment Magazine's brand-new video series, Medium-Duty at Large, featuring an exclusive interview with Velocity EV on fleet #electrification. “Electrification of the commercial vehicle industry is a big task, I think customers should not be afraid to partner, to ask questions. It’s a big transition that we all go through together,” said Alexander Voets, general manager of Velocity EV, distributor of #DaimlerTrucks’ RIZON Truck brand. “I always advise customers start small, start with something that is easily comprehensible, where you get quick driver feedback, where you don’t have to make all the investments up front, be it with charging or other things.” In the episode, Voets discusses the #RIZON all-electric Class 4 to 5 cabover trucks on California streets, the best scenarios for using AC vs. DC charging, challenges of meeting diverse needs in the medium-duty industry, and how legislation is shaping EV demand. 📺 Watch the video here: https://lnkd.in/exRUvFJG #RizonTrucks #emobility #electrictruck #EV #fleets #fleetsolutions #lastmiledelivery #electrification

Time truly flies when you're helping customers drive economic and environmental #sustainability — celebrating a year of progress with RIZON Truck!
Time flies and it has already been a year since we launched our latest ZEV offering, RIZON. Just 12 months on, we have developed two new models that were showcased at the 2024 Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in Las Vegas last week! As part of our commitment to offer our customers even more efficient ZEV options, these models will have enhanced payload capacities and come with an updated warranty package. What this means is that our customers will now be able to reduce the number of trips needed for local deliveries and operations. We are confident that our latest offering will go a long way in helping our customers conduct their businesses more efficiently and sustainably!
