Watt Electric Vehicle Company’s eCV1 concept looks like Tesla’s Semi, only smaller. Here’s what it will offer.
Watt Electric Vehicle Company’s eCV1 concept is slated for production later this year, but already has plenty of competition.Watt Electric Vehicle Company plans eCV1 lineup of electric trucks and panel vans, based on its Passenger and Commercial EV Skateboard architecture.
The startup, launched in 2022, calls its PACES platform a"cell-to-chassis" system, denoting the use of a structural battery pack designed to minimize weight and increase chassis stiffness. The chassis itself is constructed using a method called FlexTech, which uses laser-cut and CNC-folded aluminum pieces that are bonded and interlocked, further decreasing overall weight.
When it comes to range, the concept is designed to be powered by a 110-kWh battery, which is promised to permit it to cover 290 miles between recharges, though the company hasn't indicated just which versions will be able to offer this rating."Our unique approach to addressing the challenges facing the industry enables the transition to mission-specific, yet cost-effective electric light commercial vehicles," said Neil Yates, Founder and CEO of Watt Electric Vehicles.
However, like Rivian and BrightDrop, WEVC is betting that commercial buyers will want a customized design engineered from scratch, rather than waiting for a wider lineup of mass-market electric vans and trucks to arrive from familiar automakers.
