SylvanSport and Zeus Electric Partner on Electric RVs

Zeus Electric Chassis, a fully configurable class 3-8 electric work truck chassis manufacturer, is proud to announce an agreement with SylvanSport, a producer of award-winning adventure trailers, outdoor gear and camping accessories, to “redefine habitat and mobility in the RV industry.”

The Zeus electric chassis can be configured to a broad range of applications with limited customization, such as in the vocational work truck market. But while that has been the company’s priority until now, this new collaboration with SylvanSport marks the next potential strategic market niche within the broader markets that Zeus is targeting. RV owners and customers, with their love of the outdoors and concerns regarding climate change, present a fresh market with long-term growth potential for the Zeus chassis, the company said.

“As we look at the future of mobility, and what clean energy means to this planet, to the RV industry and to SylvanSport’s leadership, we can’t imagine a more perfect partner to move forward with our combined vision of bringing amazing, electric vehicles to outdoor recreation,” said Wayne Kugel, Zeus Electric Chassis CEO.

The two companies say the collaboration will help to establish a pathway for progress on design innovation to develop products that will enhance the outdoor adventure experience, affording RV users the ability to enjoy the outdoors while minimizing their impact on the environment.  This vision will include new technologies to reduce RV emissions, eliminate waste, provide clean sustainable water and enable consumers to sustain the pristine vistas that endear them to the outdoors.

“From the inception of SylvanSport in 2004 we knew the pinnacle of our achievement would be the creation of a class-leading, all-electric motorhome,” said Tom Dempsey, founder and CEO of SylvanSport. “Zeus technology has allowed us to achieve this in the most forward-thinking, environmentally clean way. What a phenomenal team””
