ZM Trucks will collaborate with Morgan Truck Body on its zero-emissions, battery electric commercial vehicles.
"At ZM Trucks, we are committed to driving innovation and setting a new standard for commercial vehicles," says Joost de Vries, CEO. "Establishing our first North American manufacturing facilities and regional headquarters in Fontana, Calif., allows us to meet the growing demand for our sustainable vehicle solutions. By collaborating with Morgan Truck Body, we intend to bring our trucks to customers nationwide, offering an ideal combination of a superior chassis and drivetrain that outperforms diesel — especially on total cost of ownership — married to their choice of the highest quality body upfit."
The collaboration will feature ZM's standard 600-volt electric power takeoff (ePTO) and 24v chassis infrastructure and Morgan's upfit solutions for dry freight, refrigerated, platform and dump bodies.
