"Federal and state regulations continue to drive the rapid adoption of all-electric commercial vehicles," Riley says. "The global refrigerated trucks market size reached $9.8 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $15.4 billion by 2032. With mandates, such as California's requirements for all transportation refrigeration units (TRUs) to achieve zero emissions by the end of 2029, combined with the increasing demand from consumers for online shopping and home grocery delivery, a significant market opportunity exists for this vehicle. GreenPower is well-positioned to support the perishable goods category with a robust product offering and a well-established nationwide dealer network."
This is GreenPower's 12th truck body upfit solution. GreenPower trucks are manufactured by GP Truck Body.
