XL Fleet expanded its line of electrified powertrains to include a hybrid-electric drive system for the medium-duty Class 5 Ford F-550 Super Duty chassis.
If the pilot is successful, Essential Utilities said it plans on electrifying a larger percentage of its fleet with XL Fleet’s systems beginning in 2021.
XL Fleet's new division will provide charging infrastructure, energy storage, and power solutions for electrified fleets. XL expects its customers will require at least 100,000 charging stations in the next several years.
The XLP platform is expected to begin shipping on select configurations of the Chevrolet and GMC Silverado/Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD pickup trucks in the first quarter of 2021, and Chevrolet and GMC 3500 and 4500 cutaway chassis in the second quarter of 2021.
XL Fleet, a provider of vehicle electrification solutions for commercial and municipal fleets, debuted two new hybrid-electric Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck options at NTEA’s The Work Truck Show.
To advance its fleet electrification and emissions reduction goals, the Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans (SWBNO) has deployed six new XL plug-in hybrid electric Ford F-150 pickup trucks to its fleet.
