These signals are uploaded along with GPS data to a Workhorse server facility where the data signals are tracked at ten (10) second intervals while driving and during the E-GEN electricity generating process and at sixty (60) seconds during a plug-in charge. The real-time data is stored in a database as it arrives and delivers updates to clients connected through the web interface. Clients are given login credentials (username and password) to the telematics website can monitor the performance and location of the vehicles. Group privileges can be configured to limit access to clientspecific vehicles securing the vehicle data so clients can only view their vehicle data. Administrator privileges allow all data for all clients to be monitored and viewed. © 2014 Workhorse Group Inc.

The program offers incentives for truck purchasers operating in 30 counties in the state. The Workhorse E-100 qualifies for a $60,000 voucher that reduces the purchase price to $73,000. Vehicles destined for New York operations are equipped with a cold weather package for maintaining battery performance. The HVIP is designed to offset much of the cost of eligible hybrid and battery-electric medium and heavy-duty vehicles using a simplified purchase voucher. The Workhorse E-100 qualifies for a base incentive of $90,000 under the HVIP in California. The first three vehicles purchased by a fleet also receive an additional incentive of $10,000 per vehicle Offers $11,000,000 in incentives to fleets interested in shifting from diesel to zero-emission vehicles. Vouchers are available for fleets operating in the city of Chicago and six surrounding counties. Workhorse E-100 All-Electric Walk In Vans qualify for an incentive of $60,00 and are equipped with a CARB-certified, onboard, fuel-fired heating system and a cold weather package for maintaining battery performance. Incentives worth $32,800 are also available to customers that wish to purchase the Workhorse E-GEN electric vehicle. © 2014 Workhorse Group Inc.

Workhorse Technologies current and pending patents, service marks and trademarks: D6069, 11/252220, US7717464 Abstract: A vehicle chassis assembly includes a frame assembly having a plurality of frame members connected together, a drivetrain, a suspension system, and an exhaust system. The connection of the frame members provides a low-profile configuration for reduced step height and a kick-up portion to allow ascent of steeper inclines. The frame further includes an exhaust pipe supported within a frame member and two castings bolted to removable wheel arches. The exhaust pipe has a circular cross-section that changes to a rectangular cross-section near the back of the chassis assembly.
