LONDON—Volta Trucks plans to produce Class 5-7 commercial vehicles in the United States. The medium-duty EV trucks are designed for urban delivery applications.
The Class 7 Volta Zero features a center-mounted steering wheel and seat that enables drivers to enter and exit the vehicle from either side. It uses a modular battery pack supplied by Proterra that provides a range of 95 to 125 miles. A compact e-axle supplied by Meritor Inc. features an electric traction motor, transmission and axle in one unit.
