Bollinger Motors Announces Bollinger B4 Production Start 

Bollinger Motors, Inc., an electric commercial vehicle manufacturer announced production of saleable units of the Bollinger B4 Chassis Cab will start September 16, 2024.

The announcement was made by company President and Chief Operating Officer Bryan Chambers and Chief Revenue Officer Jim Connelly.

The Bollinger B4 Chassis Cab is a brand new Class 4 commercial truck that was designed in close collaboration with fleet and upfitter input. Bollinger Motors' distinct EV chassis design was created specifically to encase and safeguard the 158-kWh battery pack and components, providing exceptional capability and safety in the commercial market.

“We are experiencing strong momentum in the market, having secured multiple sales orders from important customers throughout the country,” Connelly said. “We are extremely confident that we are bringing them a truck that will reward their trust and help transform their business. We cannot wait to get the B4 on the road, electrifying America’s fleets.”

Bollinger Motors has teamed up with Roush Industries for production. Roush Industries, based in Livonia, Mich., offers contract manufacturing services and brings extensive experience in production and e-mobility, developed over 50 years of engineering, testing, prototyping, and manufacturing.

The partnership also involves Roush's production of the Bollinger B4 development validation vehicles in 2023.

“This is an exciting time in Bollinger Motors’ history, as it takes a monumental team effort to go from true start-up to production in the timeframe we have achieved,” Chambers said. “The Bollinger Motors team, Roush Industries and our entire supply chain network has worked tirelessly to make the B4 a reality and I am very proud of everyone’s effort.”

The first deliveries of the commercial electric trucks will begin in October of 2024.

Bollinger Motors has hit the headlines for a few other items in the past few months, milestones including providing a full warranty coverage of the B4 Chassis Cab; receiving the Certificate of Conformity from the Environmental Protection Agency; a 70-vehicle sale to Doering Fleet Management, an 80-vehicle sale to Momentum Group; and more!

In addition, Bollinger Motors recently qualified for federal clean vehicle tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of $40,000 per vehicle for the B4 chassis cab.
