Lion Electric partners with HK Truck Center to bring electric buses to New Jersey

Lion Electric (Lion), an innovative manufacturer of zero-emission vehicles, announced that H.K. Truck Center, a leading New Jersey-based truck dealership, will distribute, sell and service Lion’s complete lineup of zero-emission buses and trucks in the state.

Under the agreement, H.K. Truck Center will serve as the regional dealer for Lion’s extensive portfolio of innovative heavy-duty battery electric vehicles, including its class 5 to class 8 heavy-duty truck offerings, as well as the LionA, LionC, LionD and LionM bus models. Lion’s heavy-duty zero-emission trucks are available in a variety of configurations, including straight truck, tractor, reefer, bucket and refuse trucks, and can travel up to 250 miles on a single charge. Lion will also provide H.K. Truck Center’s technicians with extensive service training for its vehicles.

“Lion is very proud to be working with a highly respected organization like H.K. Truck Center,” Marc-Andre Page, vice president of commercial operations at Lion Electric. “From the beginning of the relationship, it was clear to us that the H.K. team shared the same core values as the team here at Lion. Moreover, their approach, centered around customer satisfaction, really stood out as we were evaluating potential top-tier partners to support our electric truck and bus deployments in New Jersey. We are looking forward developing this relationship and deploying zero emission trucks and buses throughout the Garden State.”
