Product & use cases
Harbinger builds a rolling frame and drivetrain, batteries, electrics and controls, while specialized vehicle-body builders fit delivery, RV or box truck bodies. Fleet buyer establishes duty cycle/payload, picks chassis wheelbase and modular 35kWh battery units (vendor lists 140–210kWh, up to ~210 miles), adds vehicle body, charging, service and then deploys. Its 800V power system and advertised price parity to diesel after incentives are company claims. Actual purchase price, warranties, utilization, real range and payback depend on configuration, government incentives, electricity costs and uptime.
