Battle Motors and Velocity Truck Centers (VTC) have jointly announced an expanded partnership that will see the former's battery-electric Class 7 and 8 trucks availability expand to VTC dealerships across the country, including California, Arizona, Nevada, Tennessee, Kentucky, North and South Carolina, and Alabama.

"We are excited about this expanded partnership with Velocity Truck Centers, which aligns with our mission to deliver top-tier, transportation solutions across the country," said Stan Mikalonis, chief revenue officer of Battle Motors. "Velocity's expertise and commitment to service make them an ideal partner as we continue to grow our presence in the U.S. market.โ€

VTC confirms it now supports the sales, service, and parts for all of Battle Motors' vehicles, including BEV, CNG, and diesel.
