Peterbilt Model 579EV

The Peterbilt Model 579EV is an all-electric Class 8 truck engineered for clean, efficient operations with lower overall maintenance and zero emissions. Designed for environmentally conscious fleets, it delivers powerful, reliable performance without compromising sustainability. The Model 579EV day cab is ideal for short-haul and drayage applications, where frequent stops and starts allow the regenerative braking system to capture and return energy to the batteries, helping to extend the vehicle's range and maximize efficiency.

The Peterbilt 579EV retains all of the aerodynamic benefits, driver comforts, superior visibility, spacious interior and safety measures that drivers appreciate in the Model 579. Inside the cab, an enhanced gauge cluster displays real-time data specific to electric vehicle operation, such as power output, battery charge level, coolant temperature and more. Powered by lithium iron phosphate batteries that can be charged in as little as 3 hours, the 579EV offers a peak power rating of 670 hp and an estimated range of 150 miles on a single charge.
