Lion Electric and FPGF Report Largest All-electric School Bus Deployment in North America
Québec-based Lion Electric, a manufacturer of zero-emission vehicles, and First Priority GreenFleet (FPGF), a clean transportation solutions provider and dealer, recently announced that they had achieved the largest all-electric school bus deployment in North America made by a single Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
The two companies have partnered to roll out approximately 40 all-electric school buses in California to more than 15 districts over the past 12 months—more electric school buses than all the other OEMs and dealers combined.
Together, Lion and FPGF have deployed more than 150 all-electric school buses in the last two years, with more than a million miles driven.
The eLion bus, which carries up to 72 (passengers) offers 50 to 100 miles (90 to 150 km) per charge, powered by LG Chem batteries and a TM4 Sumo MD motor, and features a 19.2 kW on-board charger.
The largest concentration of all-electric school buses is currently in California, where grants and funding options are readily available to help schools purchase Lion’s zero-emission vehicles.
Lion is the only integrated OEM that makes its own chassis, battery packs and body. In addition to distributing the eLion C, Lion will also introduce eLion A the and eLion M this summer, an electric minibus designed to meet school transportation, paratransit and transit requirements. The vehicle will be able to travel 75 to 150 miles and was designed to meet contractor’s demands.
Lion will also start manufacturing a new complete line of specialty medium-to heavy-duty urban trucks (classes 5 to 8) all-electric trucks by the end of the current year, leveraging the technologies developed over the last eight years.
