“We are excited to expand Custom Truck’s chassis offerings through the addition of Battle Motors,” said Fred Ross, CEO of Custom Truck. “This partnership will allow us to offer electric powered options to our customers as part of our ‘one source’ offering.”

Custom Truck offers a comprehensive range of services to the heavy equipment market. The company sells, rents, customizes, remanufactures, and services a diverse range of machinery and assets. The addition of Battle Motors products is expected to allow Custom Truck to offer CARB emission compliance solutions for sales and rental customers, better serving the refuse & municipal markets.

Battle Motors custom builds heavy-duty trucks, including a fully electric chassis. Applications include refuse, recycling, construction, utility and delivery. In the refuse and recycling space, electric trucks are available in many applications including rear and automated side-loaders.

“Battle Motors is pleased to aggressively enter the utility truck space with the industry leader Custom Truck One Source. We are focused on driving technology and innovation that gives our customers exceptional value, confidence, and performance. Partnering with a leading organization like Custom Truck allows us to step-up that mission,” said Michael Patterson, CEO and chairman of Battle Motors.
