Bollinger electric pickup/SUV surpasses 10K pre-orders, going to SEMA

Bollinger Motors announced that they surpassed 10,000 reservations for their B1 all-electric sport utility truck.

Pre-orders for the all-wheel drive vehicle—which the owner can configure as either a half-cab pickup or SUV—began nearly three months ago following its reveal in New York.

“I can’t believe we’ve reached this number of reservations so quickly. The media attention from our reveal in July was amazing and the thousands of emails from fans we keep getting are incredible,” said Robert Bollinger, CEO Bollinger Motors. “I think we really built something unique. A lot of people from all over the US and the world want a tough, capable truck that’s also electric and we can’t wait to start production.”

These pre-orders, which have been made at bollingermotors.com, represent hundreds of millions of dollars in potential revenue for the New York-based company. Fleet orders are not included in that number as those are not being taken until pricing is announced.

The company also announced that the Bollinger B1 will make its industry debut at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturer’s Association (SEMA) show which runs from October 31 through November 3rd in Las Vegas. Attendees are encouraged to stop by their booth #51127 in the Performance Pavilion.
