Bollinger’s B4 electric chassis cab now qualifies for an IRS 40,000 U.S. tax credit for commercial clean vehicles, under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022*. Deliveries of the B4 chassis cab are set for Q3 2024.

LaFontaine Automotive Group will set up and manage two dealerships for Bollinger Motors in the state of Michigan: one in Lansing and the other in Farmington Hills.

The electric vehicle manufacturer also reported USD58.5m in working capital and incoming revenues of over USD12m from recent vehicle deliveries.

The value of the orders received so far amount to approximately USD6m, according to Bollinger's parent, Mullen Automotive.

Five models will be built this summer, with another 15 or so to follow by the end of the third quarter; following these, Bollinger will launch commercial production for deliveries beginning July 2024.

The money was awarded through the “Michigan Business Development Program” with the aim of promoting job creation in the state.

Mullen has stated that these recent acquisitions will allow it to enter the commercial vehicle market much sooner than anticipated - as early as next year.

Our Next Energy will provide its linkable Aries LFP battery packs to power Bollinger’s all-electric commercial platforms and chassis cabs.

Wabash’s lightweight composite truck body will be integrated with Bollinger's Class 4 electric chassis cab.

The Bollinger B4 is a cab-over truck which is driven by a solid rear-axle e-drive motor and powered by an 800-volt lithium iron phosphate battery pack supplied by an unnamed “world class battery manufacturer”.

The Chass-E line of electric vehicle platforms will provide up to 9,000 lbs / 11,500 lbs of payload for a range of commercial applications.
