Fleet-Ready™ Upfits: Electrification Without Limits
Commercial and municipal fleets love their work trucks – but they also love saving money on fuel and reducing emissions. With a Fleet-Ready hybrid or plug-in hybrid electric drive upfit from XL Fleet, you no longer need to choose between performance and sustainability – you’ll get both.
In addition to our close partnerships with the major fleet vehicle OEMs who certify our work, XL systems are minimally disruptive to the original design of the vehicle. As a result, all factory OEM warranties remain intact.
Let’s face it. Many all-electric and alternative fuel vehicles don’t get driven, because the trucks don’t perform the way drivers need them to. XL-upfitted vehicles offer the same great performance as the vehicles they’ve always relied on, but with lower fuel costs and fewer emissions.
A Wide Range of Fleet Applications
XL Fleet has electrified many of the most common commercial and municipal fleet applications today, with hybrid and plug-in hybrid electric drive solutions for vans, pickups, shuttle buses, delivery vehicles, stripped chassis, box trucks and more. Our systems are ideally suited for drive cycles with frequent acceleration and deceleration that are common among class 2-6 vehicles. Contact us today if you’re looking to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions in your stop-and-go routes!
Simple, Sustainable Technology
Traditional gas-powered, commercial fleet trucks perform critically important work, but cause more pollution and burn more fuel than any other vehicles on the road. It’s a complex problem, but we take a simple approach to making those same vehicles cleaner, greener and more sustainable.
Both our hybrid and plug-in hybrid technologies transform a factory OEM vehicle into a more fuel-efficient hybrid, by adding an electric motor, an advanced lithium-ion battery pack, and control software. No other significant modifications to the vehicle are required, and no changes are made to the internal combustion engine or transmission.

Hybrid Electric System
The XL hybrid electric system is the best and simplest way for fleets to improve MPG and meet sustainability goals without compromising on operations or vehicle performance. The XLH system saves fuel and reduces emissions through regenerative braking, helping to slow down and propel the vehicle during normal drive cycles. The electric motor assist is smooth and seamless to the driver.

Plug-in Hybrid Walkaround
* Actual MPG may vary based on drive cycle and other factors.
Zero Emission Propulsion
All electric propulsion is driving the future of transportation – and XL Fleet will be driving the future of all electric vehicles. We are currently developing a full electric platform that will power some of the most popular medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicles on the road today. Once it is released, XL Fleet will become the only provider with a full suite of electrification technologies in operation for commercial and vocational use: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric.
Power Management, Charging & Storage
XL Fleet is developing a comprehensive suite of charging and power management solutions to support all aspects of fleet electrification. Today, we can provide you with everything you need to deploy and charge your commercial plug-in vehicles, offering a range of level 1 and 2 EVSE station equipment to meet your infrastructure requirements. And we are already in the process of expanding that offering to meet the energy demands of the 21st century, with an exciting array of software, hardware and strategic partnerships to power a true Electrification as a Service solution.
Electrified Fleet Intelligence
Our proprietary, cloud-based, vehicle connectivity platform provides a continuous data link with fleet vehicles and analytics. Collecting millions of operational data points, XL Link provides actionable intelligence on fleet electrification, including speed, idling, vehicle drive cycle, and CO2 emissions reduction. XL Link offers the most accurate MPG measurement in the industry and provides fleet managers with an unprecedented understanding of their drivers’ vehicle charging behavior. XL Link is deployed in all fleet vehicles equipped with XLH or XLP systems and can also be installed as a standalone telematics solution.
