"Electric utes are all the buzz at the moment in Australia and across the
world. Now, Roev – an electric conversion start-up launched by two former
senior Atlassian executives – has released its pricing offers to electrify
existing Australian ute fleets.
Roev will focus its initial electric ute conversions on the two best selling
ute models in the Australian market – the Toyota Hilux and the Ford Ranger of
all body types. Initial conversion offerings for fleets will be for model years
2016 – 2022.
The company wants to bridge a major gap in the market – the desire by major
fleet owners to cut emissions and go electric, and the lack of supply of new EV
models, which are being rolled out in the US at the moment but could take years
to reach Australia.
Roev has committed to converting 1,000 utes in the first 12 months of the
program, and will open orders from interested fleet managers from December this
year.
Prices of the ute conversion will start at $47,990 for a 4×2 and will stretch
to $57,990 for some older 4×4 models. These prices for fleets exclude GST.
“There is huge demand for electric utes in Australia, particularly among large
fleets, we are actively listening to customers to ensure that our product
solutions meet their operational needs,” Roev CEO Noah Wasmer says."
