The timeline for the new truck variants

The ground-up development of the 7.5- and 12-ton vehicles is
being delivered at the same industry-leading pace as other vehicle
developments. Having confirmed the start of the project in December
2021, a Pilot Fleet of vehicles is expected to be launched for customer
trials in 2024, with series production due to commence in early 2025. The
forthcoming 7.5- and 12-ton vehicles will make a significant contribution
to the company’s objective to sell over 27,000 per year by 2025 and
increasing in the years beyond.

«The forthcoming 7.5- and 12-tonne models complete the full-electric
Volta Zero product family», commented Essa Al-Saleh, Chief Executive
Officer of Volta Trucks. «They’ll sit alongside our 16-tonne vehicle, that’s
currently engaged in extensive testing ahead of the first customer use
later this year, and the 18-tonne vehicle that will start production in
mid-2023. Our customers tell us that they really appreciate the safety
and zero-emission attributes of the 16-tonne Volta Zero, but also need
smaller 7.5- and 12-tonne vehicles in their operations. Our engineering
teams are now scaling rapidly to be able to deliver all four vehicles at
pace, as our customers ask of us».
