Meet The Bollinger B1, The First Fully Electric SUT

by | Jun 29, 2018 | Transportation, Automotive | 0 comments

I absolutely love this truck! Being a fan of the original four-wheel drive utility Hummer H1, not the commercialized conundrum that became the H2 or H3 which detracted from the original design, and a fan of the compact all-wheel-drive crossover SUV Honda Element, which they sadly don’t make anymore… the Bollinger B1 combines things that I like from both designs, from the shape to functionality, seat’s that fold up, easy to clean surfaces, lots of space for hauling while being able to convert back to a 4 seater… and stepping into the future where electric powered vehicles will be the new standard. The B1 is the first 100% fully electric, all aluminum, sports utility truck (SUT) designed from the ground up by startup company Bollinger Motors and I want one. More specs and details below.

… includes a 100% electric drivetrain that delivers instant torque, silent operations, zero emissions, and a portable power supply for tools, machines, even off-the-grid cabins. – Bollinger Motors
