The decision to accelerate the market launch comes in response to the strong interest and demand from customers in the Scandinavian region, particularly in Sweden, says the company.

“Sweden has a long and proud heritage of producing high-quality commercial vehicles and at Volta trucks, we have identified an interesting slice of the total transport market in the Medium Duty segment for urban deliveries. We care about cities, their people, and our planet. The Volta Zero has been designed from the ground up as an all-electric vehicle with zero tailpipe emissions, and has been purpose-built for urban transportation with safety and sustainability at the heart of what we do.” said, the Swedish Founder of Volta Trucks, Carl-Magnus Norden.

“We are currently in dialogue with several large Swedish transport providers and our objective is to ensure they can obtain vehicles from our customer experience fleet in mid-2023,” added Essa Al-Saleh, Chief Executive Officer of Volta Trucks. ”These extended test drives will enable customers to fully evaluate the truck on the local roads and understand how this new all-electric Volta Zero, together with Volta Trucks’ unique Truck as a Service (TaaS) offering, will fit into their current fleet and daily operations.”
