TELO Leads the Charge in Solving Fleet Challenges, Expanding Its Sales Offering to Include a New Commercial Fleet Sales Program

TELO Trucks — maker of the world’s most efficient pickup truck— today announced its new solution to address the toughest challenges in the commercial fleet market by unveiling its new TELO Trucks Commercial Fleet Sales initiative which the company revealed on its website at www.telotrucks.com/commercial.

Fleet operators in the construction, services, agriculture, and mid-and-last-mile delivery industries face mounting challenges that hinder productivity and compliance with emissions mandates: oversized vehicles struggle to access tight spaces, existing EV trucks use energy inefficiently, and heavy-duty capabilities are often sacrificed for sustainability.

TELO addresses these challenges by combining full-sized pickup utility with a compact design, leveraging proprietary battery and safety technologies to ensure fleets can operate effectively and sustainably, no matter the environment, whether on a construction site, in an indoor manufacturing plant, in the field, and beyond.

Features and benefits include:

• Unrivaled Payload & Towing Capacity: With options for either a 4WD, 1,700-lb payload or a 2WD, 2,000-lb payload plus a 6,600-lb towing capacity for both powertrains as well as a robust standard Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 6,100-lb, TELO Trucks can handle heavy-duty tasks with ease.

• Optimized Bed Size: A versatile 60-96” x 56” x 18” truck bed supports a range of applications, from transporting construction tools, refrigeration units, building materials, and more.

• Power Anywhere: An integrated Power Take-Off (PTO) system powers tools, charges equipment, and supports mobile workstations.

• Refrigeration Capabilities: Optional temperature control in the enclosed bed meets the needs of industries requiring cold storage, such as food, medicine, and other sensitive materials.

• Solar Panel Configurations: A groundbreaking collaboration with Aptera means buyers can select up to three solar panel kits (rooftop truck cab, tonneau truck bed cover, or camper shell), enabling charging on-the-go and enhancing energy independence, even in remote locations.

• Battery Efficiencies: TELO’s proprietary battery design is 50 percent more space-efficient than traditional EV battery packs, allowing for a smaller footprint without compromising performance.

Commenting on the news, TELO CEO and Co-Founder, Jason Marks noted, “Fleet operators shouldn’t have to choose between power, efficiency, and sustainability. We understand our commercial partners’ needs, offering them a solutions-forward pickup truck so they can operate smarter, keep costs low and meet emissions standards—without compromise.”

To guide the program’s development, ensuring the program supports diverse sectors such as construction, manufacturing, agriculture, and mid-mile delivery, TELO has formed a Steering Committee of industry experts familiar with the nuanced challenges logistics and transportation can present.

“On top of normal business challenges, fleets with pickups that operate in cities have had to deal with ever increasing traffic, more restrictive parking access, and higher costs for purchase, maintenance, and fuel,” said Steering Committee member and Founder of ACME Fleet Solutions, LLC, J Frank Guercio. “And, since the early 1990s, pickup trucks have continued to get larger! TELO provides a small truck that offers a BIG solution to all these issues.”

Sohail Suleman, Founder and CEO of TRUQIT – a company that provides rental trucks by the hour – and a member of TELO’s Steering Committee, adds, “Lately, trucks have grown so large that the only compelling option for our urban customers is a 20-year-old, two-door Toyota Tacoma. TELO is the only automaker designing with our customers in mind.”

TELO Trucks thrive in environments where larger vehicles fall short. From mining operations to small suburban streets to underground storage facilities to dense, urban construction sites, TELO’s compact design unlocks unprecedented access while maintaining supreme functionality. Better still, TELO’s fully-customizable crew cab offers comfortable seating for two-to-five passengers – depending on whether the mid-gate is up or down. In the near future, TELO plans to release an eight passenger option, making the ultra-compact pickup truck the most versatile work vehicle designed to meet a wide-range of commercial applications.
