Bollinger Motors has unveiled a patent-pending E-Chassis Class 3 electric platform, designed with commercial applications in mind.

The patent-pending E-Chassis is the same platform shared with the company’s B1 sport utility truck and B2 pickup. Bollinger Motors will manufacture the E-Chassis alongside the B1 and B2 trucks and will be available for commercial use in 2021, according to the company.

This E-Chassis will also accommodate future models and other trucks developed by Bollinger Motors.

"When we first built our Class 3 B1, we knew there was a commercial aspect to the platform," says CEO Robert Bollinger. "Not only cab-on-chassis, but entirely new truck bodies can fit on our E-Chassis, and help propel the world to all-electric that much faster."

  • 120 kWh battery pack/180 kWh battery pack optional
  • All-wheel drive
  • All-terrain capabilities
  • Dual motor
  • Portal gear hubs

  • Independent front and rear suspension
  • 5-15 kW on-board charger/inverter
  • Complete power system controls, configurable to given vehicle application
  • Integrated thermal-management system
  • Meets Class 3 regulations
