Isuzu Commercial Truck of America’s NRR EV has been awarded California Hybrid and Zero Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) eligibility by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). 

The NRR-EV’s HVIP-eligibility means customers can qualify for up to a $60,000 HVIP voucher that can be stacked with other programs. Isuzu said this funding eligibility gives businesses more choices as they transform their fleets to zero emission vehicles (ZEV).

Isuzu said its connected service for the new NRR-EV, Isuzu360, will be an added resource for NRR-EV owners. Isuzu360 provides owners with an extension to their new vehicle warranty, complimentary scheduled service, and a host of online tools to monitor their vehicles. The Isuzu NRR is in production in Charlotte, Michigan with deliveries planned for October 2024.

Warranty Extension Under Isuzu360

Isuzu360 extends the new vehicle warranty in three key areas:

• Basic Warranty is extended from three to five years.

• Li-Ion Battery Warranty is extended from three years to eight years, and up to 245,000 miles (years or mileage, whichever occurs first; mileage varies based on battery pack configuration).

• EV Powertrain Component warranty coverage is extended from three years to eight years and up to 130,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

Complimentary Maintenance for NRR EV

Scheduled maintenance, as detailed in the Isuzu Owner’s Manual, is complimentary and will be provided for up to five years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first. The maintenance is performed by Isuzu-trained technicians using advanced EV diagnostic tools and repair equipment, the company said.

This comprehensive maintenance coverage will help ensure that the vehicle is regularly serviced and inspected to address any potential issues, according to Isuzu. Service items include multi-point inspections at the vehicle’s 10,000-mile service intervals, lubricating and torquing driveline and suspension components, and replacing necessary fluids and filters.

Isuzu360 Provides Online Tools

Isuzu360 is a dedicated online platform that connects owners to their vehicles and allows them to monitor vehicle performance, customize charging parameters, oversee maintenance periods, and check alerts and notifications.

“As businesses continue to build their zero-emission fleets, the HVIP voucher for the NRR-EV is a big step in bringing those customers into the Isuzu brand,” said Shaun Skinner, president of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America. “EV customers will also appreciate the many benefits associated with our new Isuzu360 connected service as we continue to elevate the Isuzu ownership experience.”
