U POWER Tech, a global innovator in smart electric vehicle solutions, made a bold entrance into the North American market with the unveiling of its full lineup of purpose-built electric platforms at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo, the continent’s largest commercial vehicle event.
The company’s exhibit showcased its cutting-edge skateboard chassis technology—designed to revolutionize commercial electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing—and three next-generation EV platforms engineered to meet the evolving demands of urban logistics and specialty transportation sectors.
A Trio of Purpose-Built EV Platforms
1. UP VAN:
Touted as the world’s most energy-efficient delivery van, the UP VAN is tailored for last-mile logistics. With an optimized cargo area, reduced energy consumption, and extended driving range, it offers significant cost savings and productivity boosts for urban delivery fleets.
2. UP Chassis Cab:
This modular platform supports easy upfitting and meets European crash safety standards, ensuring both adaptability and compliance for commercial operators seeking a fast transition to electrified fleets.
3. UP Chassis:
A flexible, all-electric platform built for various duty cycles, the UP Chassis supports a wide range of applications, giving fleet operators a high-performance base for specialized configurations.
All three vehicles integrate smart electric capabilities, including intelligent control systems and scalable architecture, making them some of the most customizable EV solutions in the industry today.
Bridging Innovation and Manufacturing
Combining Silicon Valley tech innovation with China’s powerful supply chain capabilities, U POWER Tech has established a global value chain spanning critical EV components—batteries, motors, controllers, and more. With active deployments across North America, Europe, and Africa, the company’s North American push signifies a critical next step in its international growth strategy.
The company has attracted major investment from top-tier venture capital firms, including Matrix Partners, ZhenFund, and Bosch’s Boyuan Capital—underscoring strong confidence in its business model and market potential.
A New Standard in Commercial EVs
“Our debut at ACT Expo marks a key milestone,” said Yao, General Manager of U POWER Tech North America. “We’re not just launching products—we’re building a zero-carbon logistics ecosystem that makes electric mobility scalable, efficient, and accessible.”
By pioneering a shared-platform approach through its skateboard chassis, U POWER Tech is breaking away from traditional vehicle development models. This shift enables faster iteration, broader customization, and more cost-effective deployment of electric commercial vehicles.
With its ACT Expo launch, U POWER Tech is poised to become a formidable force in reshaping the commercial EV landscape in North America and beyond.
