GEM Electric Vehicles has appointed ePower Trucks of Oldham, Manchester, to be its sole UK distributor.

The deal means that ePower Trucks now offers 35 EV (electric vehicle) models, including 10 which are road legal.

Jerry Hanss, Managing Director of ePowerTrucks, said: “Our goal has always been to offer customers freedom of choice when selecting electric vehicles. After securing the GEM dealership, ePowerTrucks now offers the widest range of EVs in the UK.”

Many people assume that electric vehicles are relatively new – but in fact the market for specialist electric vehicles has been evolving for some years. GEM was founded in 1997 and has sold 45,000 electric vehicles to date – providing an indication of the scale of the EV market.
