Voltu Motor Deploys AC Charging Network to Power the Next Era of Heavy-Duty Electric Trucks Around-the-Clock

2027 Voltu3 Now Available With 30-Minute AC Fast Charging at the Customer’s Location

RIVERSIDE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Voltu Motor, redefining commercial electrification, today introduced the Voltu Charging Network alongside the 2027 Voltu3 heavy-duty electric truck and a new online ordering platform, bringing vehicle performance, charging infrastructure and purchasing together in one integrated offering. Each 2027 Voltu3 includes the hardware to enable AC fast charging in as little as 30 minutes at the customer’s location. For every vehicle delivered, Voltu will also deploy one public charging outlet over the following 12 months, expanding the Voltu Charging Network alongside vehicle deployment. Along with standard DC fast-charging compatibility, Voltu3 gives customers more places and more ways to fast charge. See the power of the Voltu Charging Network now

“The future of commercial electrification demands more than a capable truck. It requires an entirely innovative approach to how fleets are powered and operated,” said George Gebhart, CEO of Voltu Motor. “With the launch of the 2027 Voltu3, we are bringing together the vehicle, charging access and a direct ordering experience to help customers put electric trucks to work. Welcome to a new era of electrification.”

The 2027 Voltu3 truck is offered in two versions: Voltu3, the fully equipped model, and Voltu3 Work, a streamlined configuration designed for work-focused applications. Both offer up to 200 kW of onboard fast-charging capability without the need for a conventional external DC fast charger. Every 2027 Voltu3 includes one Voltu Power Outlet hardware kit, enabling additional fast charging at the customer’s location with suitable three-phase electrical service. Unlike traditional charging stations, the high-power outlet can be installed by a certified electrician, with any power enhancements required to achieve maximum charging capacity, assessed separately.

Breakthrough AC Charging Architecture

At the heart of the AC Voltu Charging Network is Voltu’s patented bidirectional inverter architecture, which repurposes the truck’s existing propulsion components to perform the power-conversion function for charging while stationary. This places high-power conversion onboard the vehicle, while the Voltu Power Outlet provides controlled access to suitable electrical service.

This architecture expands where fast charging can be deployed. Through the Voltu Power Outlet, Voltu3 can access high-power charging directly from suitable three-phase electrical service, reducing reliance on conventional DC fast-charging infrastructure and bringing fast-charging capability to where commercial vehicles operate. Actual charging power and time depend on available electrical service, battery state of charge and operating conditions.

The company's new online configurator lets buyers customize and order the 2027 Voltu3 to fit their work needs. Financing options are also available for qualified customers.

“The Voltu3 heavy-duty electric truck delivers what businesses demand: performance, uptime and lower operating costs,” said Juan Ignacio Artola, chief commercial officer of Voltu Motor. “With potential fuel savings of up to $13,000 annually, customers can now customize and order a truck built to work harder and cost less to operate.”
