Commercial electric truck brand, RIZON, has announced that Premier Truck Group of Mississauga has entered a contract to be a RIZON Truck Canada dealer servicing the Greater Toronto and Southern Ontario areas.
With a focus on sustainability and innovation, RIZON trucks offer a zero-emission alternative for fleets looking to reduce their environmental impact while maintaining operational efficiency.
Ideal for last-mile delivery, municipal services, and various commercial fleet applications, RIZON’s class 4-5 all-electric vehicles are designed for durability, efficiency, and sustainability.
“We are excited to expand RIZON Truck in the Canadian market through our partnership with Premier Truck Group of Mississauga,” said Adam Crowston, General Manager of RIZON Truck Canada.
“As businesses seek more sustainable transportation options, we are committed to providing reliable and efficient electric trucks that support their transition to a greener future.”
Ron Long, President & CEO of Premier Truck Group, said he was excited to bring the RIZON line of battery electric vehicles to the key Ontario market.
“RIZON Trucks are an ideal fit for the urban areas of the Greater Toronto area,” he said.
Through Premier Truck Group’s extensive dealership network, fleet operators in Southern Ontario will have access to RIZON’s electric vehicle technology, supported by expert sales representatives, charging infrastructure guidance, and financing options.
RIZON trucks are distributed in Canada exclusively by RIZON Truck Canada, a zero-emission truck distributor.
RIZON Truck Canada is based in Surrey, BC, and is a subsidiary of Velocity Vehicle Group, one of the largest full-service commercial truck dealerships in North America, and one of the most experienced electric truck dealers in the world.
RIZON is Daimler Truck’s ninth, and newest, brand and represents its dedication to zero-emission transportation.
The brand and its trucks were announced to the public for the first time during the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in May of 2023, in Anaheim, California, and are currently in operation for customers on American and Canadian streets.
RIZON trucks are capable of being charged by two types of battery charging systems: DC Fast Charging (via CCS1 connector), and less expensive Level 2 AC Charging (via J1772 connector).
This flexibility means customers can expect to charge their truck today while being ready for DC Fast chargers in the future.
