AEV has partnered with Lightning eMotors, a provider of premium commercial electric vehicle power trains, to build our Type II battery electric ambulance.
The power train components, including batteries and power electronics, are proven with on-road validation, with the electric motors providing industry-leading power and torque performance. Utilizing this battery electric chassis conversion, AEV completes the ambulance per the customer’s order requirements.
Power Train
Utilizes a three-phase permanent magnet electric traction motor
Electric Motor
Fewer moving parts, leading to fewer required preventative maintenance tasks and lower overall service costs versus internal combustion engines
Batteries
Uses precision active thermal management to control battery temperatures, delivering improved performance, safety and longer battery life
Charging
Direct Current fast charging at up to 80 kWh (DCFC) allows 80% charging in as few as 45 minutes3
More readily available Alternating Current charging can accept
up to 13.2 kW
charging rate
Industry-standard
SAE J1772 CCS1 combo charging connector
Regenerative Braking
Electric vehicles
capture energy, using regenerative braking, where the electric motor acts as a generator to slow the vehicle and recharge the batteries
Reduces brake wear
