Vicinity Motor Corp. announced it has partnered with Danfoss Editron to utilize its drivetrain systems in the medium duty fully electric Vicinity LightningTM EV Bus. The systems feature a Buy America Compliant 220kW motor with an Eaton multi-speed transmission. They are also fitted with a digital AVIONICS controller and inverter to enable the intelligent management of all the vehicle's operations. Weighing only 85kg, Danfoss Editron's drivetrain systems are significantly lighter in weight than other electric drivetrains on the market, which can weigh as much as 500kg. Manufactured in Danfoss Editron's Colorado plant, these Buy America Compliant motors are a key part of the Vicinity LightningTM product that will be assembled in the new VMC Washington State manufacturing facility.
