Mullen Automotive, Inc. has announced that its all-electric Class 3 low-cab forward chassis truck has received certification from the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
The certification is awarded to vehicle manufacturers who meet specific emissions standards in compliance with CARB regulations. The District of Columbia and 14 states (California, Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont) have adopted vehicle standards under the Clean Air Act, which requires additional approvals beyond Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations.
Mullen’s Class 1 and Class 3 commercial vehicles are now in receipt of Environmental Protection Agency and CARB certifications. Both vehicles are also in full compliance with US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Having received credentials from CARB and the EPA, Mullen can now sell both the Mullen ONE and THREE in every state throughout the US.
“CARB approval accelerates commercialization of the Mullen THREE and makes our vehicle even more appealing to customers who want to electrify their fleets,” said David Michery, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Mullen Automotive. “Having both our Class 1 and Class 3 commercial EVs now CARB and EPA-certified will continue to drive sales in all states across America.”
Mullen’s EV development portfolio includes the Mullen FIVE EV Crossover, Mullen-GO Commercial Urban Delivery EV, Mullen Commercial Class 1-3 EVs, and Bollinger Motors, which features both the B1 and B2 electric SUV trucks and Class 4-6 commercial offerings. Bollinger Motors is a majority-owned EV truck company of Mullen Automotive. As well, Mullen closed on the acquisition of Electric Last Mile Solutions’ assets, including all IP and a 650,000-square-foot plant in Mishawaka, Indiana.
