OSCEOLA, AR / ACCESSWIRE / December 12, 2023 / Envirotech Vehicles, Inc. (NASDAQ:EVTV), ("EVTV" or "the Company"), announced today that it has entered into a 90-day pilot program with Crossno Corp., a pick-up & delivery (P&D) and linehaul independent contractor for FedEx Ground with operations in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas. EVTV has delivered four logistics vans, two each in right-hand drive and left-hand drive configuration, for the program.

Phillip Oldridge, Chief Executive Officer of Envirotech Vehicles, commented, "We are proud to bring Crossno Corp. into our customer network. Under the FedEx brand, Clint Crossno and his team have developed a strong reputation over the last sixteen years for safe and efficient P&D and linehaul operations, consistently growing their enterprise across the mid-south and into north and central Texas. We are excited to support Crossno Corp. as they embark on their electrification journey by providing them with a fleet of four of our all-electric logistics vans. We are confident that their team will appreciate the simplicity and efficiency of our vehicles, which are designed with a view of minimizing total cost of ownership for fleet owners, and we look forward to the opportunity to engage with them on a longer-term basis in the future."

Crossno Corp. represents a new customer for EVTV, which has inventory in stock and is able to deliver its vehicles in relatively short order. The Company's primary sales channels to-date have been through the New Jersey Zero-Emission Incentive Program ("NJ ZIP") and California Hybrid and Zero Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP). Both state-run programs are designed to spur fleet electrification by reducing the cost of commercial electric vehicles, with vouchers that can be as high as $175,000 per vehicle.
