SEA Electric Reveals SV6 EV: A Step Van Game-Changer at WTW2022
Indianapolis, IN, Mar. 9, 2022/Medianet-International/--

- The freshest innovation from SEA Electric, the SV6 EV will shape the future 
of last-mile deliveries
- A globally proven zero-emission solution, developed specifically for the 
local market
- The lightest, most cost-effective and best-performing solution available

SEA Electric's leading technology in the zero-emissions e-Mobility space 
continues to find favor with commercial fleets the world over, with its latest 
configuration, the SV6 EV set to be a game-changer in North America's step van 
market.

At the heart of the Class 6 SV6 EV is the proprietary SEA-Drive(R) 
power-system, which leads the industry in terms of range, driving performance, 
and environmental credentials, with zero local emissions of carbon dioxide, 
methane or nitrous oxide.

Thanks to its medium-voltage architecture and no requirement for active thermal 
management, SEA Electric's solution is the lightest, most cost-effective and 
most efficient system available in the battery-electric last-mile delivery 
segment.

"With the SV6 EV, we bring to the market a solution that has been proven by 
over a million miles of real-world use, with the package set to revolutionize 
the important step van market across North America," said Tony Fairweather, 
Founder and CEO of SEA Electric.

"The environmental possibilities of the SEA-Drive(R) power-system are simple - 
our mission is to eliminate approximately 2.5 billion lbs of CO2 emissions over 
the next five years.

"When compared to a traditional internal combustion engined vehicle the 
benefits extend far beyond energy efficiencies. From an operational 
perspective, lower maintenance and running costs, are a given, with the 
elimination of diesel consumption and fewer moving parts minimising service 
costs."

"Our users can fully expect to recover any purchase price premium within a 
maximum 5 years, plus this return is often bolstered further depending on state 
or local initiatives available."

"With our extensive deployments to date in the step van field, we have already 
seen the significant benefits of SEA Electric ownership – the entire shift to 
EV is on the horizon, and we offer to the marketplace a dependable partnership, 
today."

The system's proprietary management software is designed to optimize power 
distribution to the various sub-systems of the vehicles, with this energy 
conservation backed up by passive and active stages of regenerative braking, 
which charge the medium voltage batteries while the vehicle slows.

For users, the switch to EV provides a comfortable work environment, with 
health and safety considerations including no noise, fumes, heat or vibrations.

Powered by the SEA-Drive(R) 120b power-system, the SEA SV6 EV covers 
applications with a GVWR up to 26,000lbs (Class 6), with its 335hp and 1,845 
lb-ft performance ratings capable of handling any situation.

The 138kWh battery pack for the platform delivers a class-leading unladen range 
of up to 170 miles, complete with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) charging capabilities, 
while also configured for fast charging at up to 100kW.

The batteries come with a full five-year warranty, with the warranty of the 
systems covering three years or 50,000 miles.

The unique nature of the mid-mounted batteries improves safety and driving 
dynamics, while also supplying power to all ancillary systems.

A mobile app and fleet portal will soon be released to complement the onboard 
telemetry.

Plans are afoot for a Class 3, 4 and 5 step-van solution (SEA SV3 EV, SEA SV4 
EV and SEA SV5 EV) also.
