"American truck maker Peterbilt just doubled its electric model lineup by introducing three all-new medium-duty battery-powered regional trucks, signaling to the competition that it's serious about the EV game. The new 536EV, 537EV and 548EV trucks join the previously announced 520EV, 567EV and 579EV models, bringing the American company's tally to half a dozen electric trucks. The recently revealed models are powered by lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which are known for their durability, and can be charged at up to 350 kilowatts."
"A midship-mounted dual-motor setup powers all of them, but the power output depends on the model. The smallest of the new lineup, the 536EV, has a maximum output of 470 horsepower and 1,100 pound-feet of torque. Its 250-kilowatt-hour battery pack enables a maximum driving range of 200 miles on a full charge, while an 80% top-up will take 80 minutes, according to Peterbilt."
Peterbilt added three medium-duty battery-electric regional trucks — the 536EV, 537EV and 548EV — expanding its lineup to six electric models. All three use lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries that can charge at up to 350 kW. A midship-mounted dual-motor setup powers each model, with power and torque varying by configuration. The 536EV produces 470 hp and 1,100 lb-ft with a 250 kWh battery for up to 200 miles and an 80% charge in 80 minutes. The 537EV is Class 7, offers 605 hp and 1,850 lb-ft with 250 kWh or 375 kWh options for up to 280 miles. The 548EV is a Class 8 truck rated up to an 82,000-pound GCWR.
