ZM Trucks partners with Morgan Truck Body to innovate zero-emission commercial vehicle upfits
ZM Trucks plans to collaborate with Morgan Truck Body, a manufacturer of light- and medium-duty freight and refrigerated van and truck bodies. The collaboration will join ZM Trucks' standard 600V dual electric power takeoff and 24V chassis infrastructure with Morgan Truck Body's upfit solutions for dry freight, refrigerated, platform, and dump bodies.
"At ZM Trucks, we are committed to driving innovation and setting a new standard for commercial vehicles," Joost de Vries, CEO of ZM Trucks, said. "Establishing our first North American manufacturing facilities and regional headquarters in Fontana, California, 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."
