About RIZON:
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. Velocity Vehicle Group is the authorized distributor of RIZON Truck.
The Class 4 and 5 medium-duty battery-electric vehicles, ranging from 15,995 up to 18,850 lbs. in gross vehicle weight (GVW), can run from 70 -110 miles (M size variant with 2 battery packs) to 120 – 250 km (L size variant with 3 battery packs) on a single charge*.
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.
