Macnab EV Sales is set to receive 126 electric cargo vans, passenger vans and shuttle buses from Lightning eMotors by the end of 2023

Lightning eMotors, a leading provider of zero-emission commercial electric vehicles, is partnering with Ingersoll, Ont.-based Macnab EV Sales Corp. to bring 126 zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) to the province by the end of this year.

This deal marks a significant milestone for both companies. This is the first time Macnab, a commercial vehicle distributor, is entering the commercial EV market, while Colorado-based Lightning eMotors is strengthening its presence in the Canadian market.

“It’s an honour — and a testament to the quality and reliability of our vehicles — to receive this order from Macnab as they begin their foray into commercial EVs,” said Tim Reeser, CEO of Lightning eMotors in a press statement. “We are proud they chose Lightning vehicles for their customer EV offering and look forward to getting these vehicles into customers’ hands this year as we further expand our footprint in Canada.”

The 126-vehicle deal includes a fleet of Lightening’s ZEV3 cargo and passenger vans and ZEV4 shuttle buses.

Deliveries of Lightning’s ZEV3 vans to Macnab are already starting and the full order of vehicles is to be complete by the end of this year. A Lightning eMotors ZEV3 Transit Cargo Van will be available for test drives this week at the EV & Charging Expo in Toronto.
