Several automotive manufacturers are working to release electric truck options in the near future. Pre-orders are also available for certain makes and models. That being said, there are several transit and last-mile delivery vehicles available. To learn more, read our white paper: Medium and heavy-duty electrification trends.

Fleet electrification refers to the transition of fleets from internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs). Electrifying a fleet will reduce emissions and fuel costs while increasing operational efficiency. Electric vehicles also allow fleets to operate within government mandated low or zero emission zones.

An electric vehicle (EV) refers to any vehicle that is propelled in part or solely by an electric motor. A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is a type of EV which is propelled by both a fuel internal combustion engine (ICE) as well as an electric motor. It can be charged by plugging in but also has an internal combustion engine that runs on liquid fuel. This helps to either propel the vehicle or powers the battery as a generator. Fuel supplements the battery as a power source, effectively extending the range. Some PHEV models only use fuel when the battery is depleted.

Unlike traditional vehicles, electric vehicles do not adhere to mandated telematics data standards, making data access difficult. At Geotab, we’ve established unique capabilities to access crucial EV data by working directly with manufacturers to provide your EVs with excellent data support today and in the future as your EV fleet grows. Operate your electric vehicles with confidence, knowing that your reporting contains no data gaps and that your performance queries are answered using the world's largest EV dataset.

EV performance reporting is important because it helps create a better picture of how an EV fleet operates. Reports can help track range, state of charge, battery levels, temperature, battery degradation and more.

Geotab believes in the future of open platforms, to allow customers to benefit even more from the services it provides. That's why it has developed the OEM data platform, as vehicle manufacturers now fit their latest models with telematics devices. Geotab's OEM platform therefore allows the manufacturer's proprietary device data to be incorporated into MyGeotab, giving consumers access to more comprehensive vehicle status information. To incorporate this data, you simply need to activate the telematics solution and register the device in the MyAdmin section of MyGeotab.

Customer service is extremely important to Geotab, so we have various different ways in which we support you and answer your questions. You can post or search for your question on the Geotab forum, watch tutorials on the main website, or contact your provider through the MyGeotab help section.

Geotab currently supports more than 200 brands and models of electrical vehicle. Check our reference sheet for a complete list of the electric vehicle brands/models supported.
