COMMERCE, Calif., May 21, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- TCI Transportation, a leading provider of lease and
rental solutions for commercial vehicles, has embarked on a
significant partnership with Evolectric, a pioneer in electric
vehicle conversion technology. This collaboration underscores TCI's
commitment to sustainability by integrating cutting-edge,
environmentally friendly vehicles into its fleet.
John Sappington, Executive Vice
President of Sales & Marketing at TCI
Transportation, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership.
"We are excited to add the new Evolectric trucks to our lease
and rental fleet. These vehicles are lighter than most in their
class, allowing for greater payload. Built on the familiar
Isuzu N-Series chassis, they ensure easy servicing by
our technicians, enhancing overall operational efficiency," he
stated. "Our customers are set to benefit immensely from
Evolectric's innovative CircularEVs."
The first Evolectric truck has already been delivered to TCI,
marking the beginning of what promises to be a transformative
collaboration. Evolectric's Co-CEO and CFO, Jakson Alvarez, shared his vision for the
partnership, "Our collaboration with TCI Transportation is a
pivotal step towards scaling up our reach and delivering
dependable, world-class commercial EV conversions. Our
CircularEV solution is designed to be scalable, reliable, and
accessible, ensuring that we meet the diverse needs of
fleet owners worldwide."
The partnership was cemented with a Letter of Intent signed by
John Sappington, outlining the future roadmap for
collaboration between the two companies with at least 100 vehicles
including the features for future class 6 and 7
trucks. Additionally, TCI Transportation and Evolectric will
jointly showcase their latest technologies and models at the
upcoming ACT show this May, providing an opportunity for
industry stakeholders to witness the innovative solutions
first-hand.
TCI Transportation proudly participated in the grand opening of
Evolectric's new headquarters in Rancho Dominguez, California. The event
showcased Evolectric's ambitious plans to convert 100,000
vehicles per year to electric using a decentralized
service network. TCI's involvement highlights its proactive
role in supporting innovative solutions in
fleet electrification and its
commitment to embracing sustainable technologies
in its operations.
TCI Transportation continues to lead the way in sustainable
transportation solutions, exemplified by the inclusion of
Kalmar TX electric yard tractors in their fleet. These
state-of-the- art electric vehicles underscore TCI's
commitment to reducing carbon emissions and
improving environmental efficiency in yard operations. The
electric yard tractors represent a significant step forward in
TCI's green initiatives, reflecting their broader commitment to
eco-friendly business practices.
Beyond electric vehicles, TCI Transportation has embraced
numerous green initiatives, prioritizing long-term
environmental stewardship. These initiatives include
successful deployments of solar technology, LED lighting, and
the use of Renewable Natural Gas and Renewable Diesel. These
