Conversion kit for low-speed utility trucks

Low-speed utility trucks are widely used in factories, farms, warehouses, campuses, resorts, airports, and municipal service applications. Most traditional utility trucks still rely on gasoline or diesel engines, resulting in higher fuel costs, engine maintenance, noise, and emissions. Converting these vehicles to electric power provides a more efficient and environmentally friendly transportation solution for short-distance commercial operations.

Our electric conversion kits are specially designed for low-speed utility trucks with payload capacities ranging from 500kg to 3000kg. Depending on vehicle weight and operating conditions, we offer AC and PMSM motor systems from 5kW to 30kW, combined with lithium battery platforms from 51.2V to 144V.

The conversion system includes motor, controller, lithium battery pack, BMS, charger, DC/DC converter, dashboard, VCU, and complete wiring harnesses. Compact battery layouts allow efficient use of limited chassis space while maintaining vehicle balance and cargo capacity.

Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, electric utility trucks provide lower operating cost, reduced maintenance, quieter operation, and smoother driving performance, making them ideal for daily commercial transportation and industrial logistics applications.

Front and Rear E-axle motor for Electric low-speed utility trucks

This electric drivetrain solution is specially designed for low-speed utility trucks used in factories, farms, warehouses, airports, and municipal service vehicles. The system combines a 72V 7.5kW rear e-axle motor with a non-powered front steering axle, providing a compact and reliable electric conversion solution for light commercial applications.

The rear e-axle integrates the motor, differential, and transmission structure into a single compact assembly, reducing installation complexity and improving drivetrain efficiency. The 72V 7.5kW AC motor delivers strong low-speed torque, smooth acceleration, and stable climbing performance under loaded conditions.

Typical system specifications include:

System voltage: 72V
Motor power: 7.5kW
rear axle: 10.5:1/12:1/18:1
Maximum speed: 20-35 km/h
Payload capacity: 1500–3000kg
Gradeability: 10%

The front steering axle adopts a non-powered design with mechanical steering linkage, helping reduce system cost and maintenance requirements while maintaining vehicle maneuverability and load capacity.

Compared with traditional fuel-powered utility trucks, the electric e-axle system offers lower operating cost, quieter operation, reduced maintenance, and improved energy efficiency for daily commercial transportation.

DC-DC Converter for Conversion kit for low-speed utility trucks

DC-DC converter typically falls into three voltage levels: low voltage platforms such as 48V and 72V, which are suitable for light-duty equipment and offer advantages in cost and safety but are limited in power output; medium voltage platforms including 96V, 144V, and 300V, which represent the mainstream solution and are widely used in applications such as baggage tractors, belt loaders, and small service vehicles; and high voltage platforms ranging from 300V to 600V or higher, typically used in aircraft tow tractors, large loading equipment, and high-demand systems such as GPU and air conditioning units, offering higher power capability and efficiency but with increased system complexity and cost.

We provide a full range of voltage platforms from 48V, 72V, 96V, 144V up to high-voltage solutions, allowing customers to select the most suitable configuration based on power requirements. Once the voltage and power level are defined, we further optimize the complete system architecture, including components such as DC-DC converters and other key parts, ensuring a fully matched and reliable electrification solution for each application.

dashboard for Conversion kit for low-speed utility trucks

The dashboard plays an important role in electric tricycle and cargo trike conversions. A suitable dashboard should display speed, battery SOC, voltage, current, and fault warnings in real time. For heavy-duty cargo trikes, CAN communication dashboards are recommended for more accurate system monitoring. The dashboard must match the controller protocol and system voltage such as 72V or 96V. Waterproof and vibration-resistant designs are also important for commercial applications operating under rough road conditions.

Compact On-Board Charger for Conversion kit for low-speed utility trucks

A compact on-board charger is an important component in electric tricycle and cargo trike conversion kits. Compared with external chargers, on-board chargers provide greater convenience for daily charging operations, especially for commercial delivery and utility vehicles.

Most electric tricycle systems use 72V, 96V, or 144V lithium battery platforms, requiring chargers with stable output voltage and intelligent charging protection. Compact high-frequency chargers offer higher efficiency, lower heat generation, and reduced installation space requirements.

For cargo trikes operating under harsh conditions, waterproof and vibration-resistant charger designs are highly recommended. CAN communication capability can also improve compatibility with the BMS, allowing real-time monitoring of battery temperature, charging current, and fault diagnostics.

A properly selected on-board charger improves charging safety, battery life, and overall system reliability

Space-Optimized Battery Packs for Conversion kit for low-speed utility trucks

Battery installation space is one of the biggest challenges in electric tricycle and cargo trike conversions. Unlike factory-built EVs, conversion projects must fit the battery system within limited chassis space while maintaining proper weight distribution and cargo capacity.

To meet different power and range requirements, we provide multiple compact lithium battery pack options, including:

51.2V 122Ah / 230Ah
73.6V 122Ah / 230Ah
102.4V 122Ah / 230Ah

The 51.2V platform is suitable for light-duty passenger tricycles and short-distance delivery applications. The 73.6V system provides improved efficiency and climbing performance for medium-duty cargo transport. For heavy-duty cargo trikes and higher power motor systems, the 102.4V platform delivers lower operating current, better thermal performance, and higher drivetrain efficiency.

All battery packs use integrated BMS protection with functions including over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, and temperature protection. Compact modular designs also simplify installation and future maintenance for commercial electric tricycle applications.
