Motiv Power Systems
Founded in 2009, Motiv Power Systems began as a power train manufacturer and launched its electric powertrain control system (ePCS) which could be scaled to power any type of truck, from shuttle buses and Class-A school buses, to work trucks, box trucks, and 52000 lb garbage trucks. Motiv pivoted to provide electrified chassis based on the Ford platform including the E450 and the F59. These electrified chassis were deployed in a variety of vehicles including Type A school buses, shuttle buses, Type C school buses, box trucks, and walk-in delivery cans. While the ePCS could be used with almost any new truck maker's chassis or for an older truck retrofit, the level of engineering integration meant the vehicles manufactured at scale were fully developed chassis. Beginning in 2015 Motiv's delivery trucks have been in service with AmeriPride in linen delivery applications. Motiv electrified chassis were certified by the California Air Resources Board, enabling them to be sold through California state programs including HVIP. Motiv collaborates with existing truck body manufacturers to allow them to sell electric options using the electrified chassis as a drop in replacement on their existing manufacturing lines. An example of this type of manufacturing can be seen in the development of delivery vans with both Morgon Olson and Utilimaster.
