Tevva 7.5t electric truck
now eligible for UK
plug-in truck grant
British electric vehicle manufacturer Tevva has secured government plug-in truck grant
(PITrG) eligibility for its 7.5t battery-electric truck. UK organisations looking to decarbonise
operations and future-proof their fleets will benefit from a potential £16,000 discount,
removed from the purchase price by Tevva.
To be eligible for the grant, N2 vehicles (trucks that weigh between 5-12 tonnes) must have a CO2 emissions figure of at
least 50 percent less than the conventional equivalent vehicle that can carry the same capacity and can travel at least
60 miles without any tailpipe emissions at all. Tevva’s 7.5t battery-electric truck offers up to 140 miles (227 kilometres)
from its 105-kWh battery on a single charge, and is ideal for last-mile and urban delivery fleets.
The Tevva 7.5t battery-electric truck is the only vehicle from a British manufacturer to qualify for the PITrG, and beco-
mes only the third eligible truck to be listed on the government website. The grant pays for 20 percent of the purchase
