Workhorse Group Inc. (NASDAQ: WKHS) ("Workhorse"), a North American OEM and provider of all-electric trucks, step vans, shuttles and buses, today announced the availability of a new W56 Step Van model with a 140 kWh battery. The new model is based on the same platform as the 210 kWh Workhorse W56 step van, which is renowned for its spacious cargo, ergonomic design, reliability and durability and comes in two wheelbases (Standard and Extended).

W56 step vans with the Standard Wheelbase and 140 kWh configuration offer an estimated nominal range of 100 miles per charge at full payload. Pricing begins at $169,000 which includes a fully-integrated, purpose-built composite body. Because Workhorse produces the W56 fully on site, it has greater control of the process which can result in lower costs and more predictable delivery timelines.

The Standard 178" Wheelbase offers 1,000 cubic feet of cargo space and a payload of 11,000 lbs., making it ideal for many last-mile delivery needs. The Expanded 208" Wheelbase offers 1,000 cubic feet of cargo space and 10,000 lbs., making it perfect for larger loads with the added benefit of enhanced stability for efficient operations.
