The car is designed with a characteristic and austere design along with an angular body covered with matte varnish. By August 2017, the manufacturer managed to collect 6,000 orders for the Bollinger B1.
Bollinger B1 and B2
Bollinger Company says:
Bollinger trucks are the only Class 3 electric trucks on the planet. From the ground up, the dream was to build something that didn’t exist. Clean and simple, built to last. Nothing frivolous, nothing unnecessary. All electric. All aluminum. All wheel drive. And we’re building them right here in Detroit.
Evolution sometimes takes a little reflection. A pause to look back, then forward. Taking the path of the all-electric 4×4 truck was obvious for Bollinger Motors, though a long-overdue refresh in the landscape of vehicle design. Our unrelenting drive to build a new standard in trucks started with a need that had been overlooked by automotive manufacturers for years.
The need was to scrap everything and start from scratch. No, we didn’t have to entirely reinvent the wheel to create a new ev truck – that was a pretty sound design already. We did, however, rethink every other system on trucks, how we use them and what we wished they did. For these electric-powered trucks to be unlike any other, we stripped the old systems away, made improvements on them, or simply left them alone because they worked great already.
By designing an electric 4-wheel-drive SUV and pickup from the ground up, we’ve created a new platform of electric trucks capable of exceptional off-road performance, combined with never-before-seen utility features. Our all-electric, dual-motor drivetrain creates best-in-class horsepower and torque, all-wheel drive, 50/50 weight distribution, unbeatable traction, and best-in-class ground clearance.
