USA / Canada – Electric-powered medium and heavy-duty vehicle manufacturer, GreenPower Motor Company Inc, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada has delivered the first Beast electric school bus manufactured at its new facility in Charleston, West Virginia, USA. The Type D BEAST electric school bus was delivered to the Kanawha County school district in West Virginia, with 37 more to be delivered by the end of the year. The company is looking to capitalise on the growing electric school bus market as school districts look to replace old diesel ICE legacy vehicles with new zero-emission (BEV) vehicles.
