Efficient Drivetrains (EDI) has announced the commercial availability of its EDI PowerDrive 6000ev system. This system is for use in medium-duty applications and is best suited for goods movement, logistics, port, and utility vehicle operations. The PowerDrive 6000ev system is already being used in several original equipment manufacturer machines that run fully or partially electric.
Efficient Drivetrains offers its EDI PowerDrive 6000ev series as an electrification kit and developer support program for OEMs looking to bring medium-duty electrified vehicle offerings to market to comply with impending emissions reductions mandates.
The EDI PowerDrive kit offers OEMs a modular design for simple integration into existing chassis designs and enables rapid solution introduction. The extensibility of EDI’s system is an ideal vehicle electrification platform, aligned to industry requirements, and will enable OEMs to meet idle free, zero emissions requirements for city and highway driving, with no impact to vehicle performance.
