ReVolt Motors Launches First U.S.-Developed Extended-Range Electric Truck with Distributed Power Capabilities, Aiming to Revolutionize Fleet Efficiency and Resilience
ReVolt Motors is making a bold move to reshape the future of commercial and industrial transportation with the launch of its groundbreaking extended-range electric truck—the only one of its kind developed in the United States. Designed with fleet operators in mind, the truck combines long-range performance, distributed power functionality, and operational flexibility, offering a compelling solution to the mounting challenges faced by the logistics and transportation sectors.
With an impressive driving range of up to 1,200 miles and fuel and emissions savings of up to 40% in targeted use cases, ReVolt’s new truck is positioned as a transformative asset for fleets looking to boost sustainability and profitability. This innovation comes at a critical time when rising fuel prices, downward pressure on freight rates, and increasing regulatory scrutiny are squeezing margins and challenging fleet sustainability.
“Rising fuel costs, shrinking freight rates, and a constantly changing logistics landscape have made it harder than ever for fleet operators to stay profitable,” said Gus Gardner, founder and CEO of ReVolt Motors. “Our extended-range electric truck gives operators the tools they need to thrive today and stay ahead tomorrow, whether they’ve got a grid connection or not.”
Designed for the Road Ahead
At the heart of ReVolt’s innovation is a highly advanced hybrid drivetrain that integrates electric propulsion with a compact, fuel-agnostic generator and a regenerative braking system. This setup not only powers the vehicle over long distances but also ensures that its battery is continuously charged during operation, minimizing downtime and maximizing efficiency. The flexibility of the dual powertrain allows operators to seamlessly switch between diesel and electric modes based on terrain and operational needs—using diesel for steady highway travel and electric power for urban or hilly conditions.
The electric truck delivers an impressive 670 horsepower and generates twice the torque of standard diesel trucks, making it more than capable of handling heavy-duty hauling requirements across demanding routes. Combined with a lightweight chassis, the truck’s power and efficiency enhancements allow for increased payload capacity per trip—translating into more revenue opportunities for fleet operators.
Distributed Power That Works Anywhere
One of the standout features of ReVolt’s electric truck is its capability to function as a mobile power unit. With distributed power capabilities, each truck can deliver up to 250 kilowatts of electricity, enabling operators to power critical tools, equipment, and even entire operations on-site—without relying on traditional grid infrastructure.
This functionality addresses a growing need across industries like construction, mining, oil and gas, and disaster response, where access to reliable energy is often limited or completely unavailable. In rural or remote environments, these trucks can serve as mobile microgrids. Using third-party connectors, operators can link multiple vehicles to create a scalable energy network—an invaluable feature for field operations where conventional infrastructure is months or even years away.
In emergency scenarios, ReVolt’s distributed power capabilities can prove life-saving. Trucks can be rapidly deployed to disaster-hit areas—such as those affected by hurricanes, snowstorms, wildfires, or other extreme weather events—to provide backup power for first responders, medical units, and communications equipment, enabling critical services to continue while utilities work to restore the grid.
Strategic Partnerships and Industry Adoption
ReVolt Motors has been proactive in forming strategic alliances to accelerate the development and deployment of its electric truck platform. Earlier this year, the company introduced its proprietary hybrid drivetrain system and has since attracted its first major fleet partner: Page Trucking. Known for its extensive experience in hauling materials for the bulk and industrial sectors, Page Trucking’s early adoption validates the operational readiness and market appeal of ReVolt’s solution.
To optimize the performance and durability of its trucks, ReVolt is collaborating with Flodraulic, a leader in fluid power systems with over five decades of industry experience. This partnership is helping refine ReVolt’s hydraulic systems to ensure optimal integration and reliability in real-world conditions.
ReVolt is also sourcing critical electrical components from Danfoss Editron, a global leader in electric and hybrid drivetrain technologies. Danfoss is supplying the truck’s key electrical systems—including the generator, power inverters, and smart controllers. These components are responsible for converting mechanical power into electrical energy, converting DC to AC power, and intelligently managing power flow across the truck’s various systems to ensure maximum efficiency.
Driving the Clean Transportation Movement
With government mandates and corporate sustainability goals pushing the industry toward net-zero emissions, ReVolt’s entry into the market couldn’t be timelier. The company’s vision aligns with broader efforts to decarbonize transportation and reduce dependence on fossil fuels, particularly in the heavy-duty segment, which remains one of the most difficult areas to electrify.
Yet, ReVolt’s approach isn’t just about going electric. It’s about meeting fleet operators where they are—providing a solution that doesn’t demand full grid dependency or massive infrastructure upgrades. By blending electric power with an onboard generator, ReVolt’s truck offers a transitional solution for fleets that want to move toward cleaner operations without sacrificing reliability or performance.
See It Live at ACT Expo 2025
ReVolt Motors will showcase its extended-range electric truck at the upcoming Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo, taking place in Anaheim, California, from April 28 to May 1, 2025. Attendees will find ReVolt at Booth 4387, where the company’s technical team will be available to provide detailed insights into the truck’s features, drivetrain technology, and real-world use cases.
In addition to in-booth demos, conference participants will also have the exclusive opportunity to schedule a test drive of a ReVolt commercial fleet truck. These sessions offer fleet managers, industry stakeholders, and media a chance to experience firsthand how the truck performs in dynamic driving conditions.
With this latest innovation, ReVolt Motors is not just entering the electric vehicle market—it’s redefining what’s possible for commercial fleets. By delivering a powerful, practical, and grid-independent solution, the company is helping the transportation industry take a major step toward a more resilient, sustainable, and profitable future.
