Australian automotive technology company SEA Electric is set to exhibit at the National Roads & Traffic Expo on September 17 and 18 2019, Stand 901.
SEA Electric will have on display the recently launched SEA NPR EV tipper truck, Australia’s first 100% electric tipper truck. Fully powered by electricity with integrated body and ancillaries, the tipper truck will be deployed at the City of Yarra immediately after the expo for hard rubbish collections.
The Isuzu NPR 65-190 tipper is powered by a SEA-Drive® 100 power-system which produces 59kW continuous power and 108kW maximum power. More importantly for a commercial vehicle the SEA-Drive® 100 produces continuous torque of 1,000Nm, has a range of up to 275km (unladen), has an onboard three-phase charger that can be charged to 80% within 5 hours.
The electric tipper truck also offers zero emissions, mid mounted batteries for vehicle balance and safety and added driver protection. The driving environment is enhanced by no diesel fumes and very little noise.
Glen Walker, SEA Electric’s Regional Director of Oceania will be presenting at the National Roads & Traffic Expo on “The case for Electric Trucks and Why They Differ from Electric Cars” at 4.30pm on Tuesday 17th September.
“SEA Electric is proud to reveal this electric tipper truck at the National Roads & Traffic Expo”, said Glen Walker. “This vehicle, produced in partnership with the City of Yarra, reduces operating costs, enhances driving environment and lowers total cost of ownership when compared with existing diesel technology.”
