Karma Automotive has announced its E-Flex utility van platform with extended range electric vehicle (EREV) architecture.
The new platform is one of five demonstration projects designed to illustrate the company’s technical direction and capabilities through use of EREV and battery-electric (BEV) chassis systems.
The EREV E-Flex Van platform provides an all-electric range of up to 200 miles and combined range of over 400 miles.
It can also be retrofitted to commercial delivery fleet vehicles, shuttle buses, tradesman service vehicles, camper vans and more.
An on-board generator enables sustainable driving and adherence to clean air zones and quiet transport.
“Electrification represents a growing shift in the mobility industry, not only in consumer vehicles but in commercial vehicles as well, said Lewis Liu, Karma Automotive vice president of business development.
The platform, which has been manufactured at Karma’s assembly plant in Moreno Valley, California, can be delivered as a powertrain kit for existing chassis or delivered as a full E-Flex platform.
The EREV van platform is the latest in a series of development projects featuring the Karma E-Flex platform.
Other E-Flex platform exhibitions recently showcased include the company’s EREV platform, a BEV van equipped with Level 4 autonomous technology, and a high-performance platform with supercar-capable architecture.
