INTRODUCING OV-1

Built like a spacecraft, not a locomotive.

Configurations

One modular architecture. Three configurations

Electric

Pure battery power, charged at the depot or dockside, for sustained medium-distance operations.

Petrol Range-Extended Electric

100% electric drive, 100% of the time, with an onboard petrol generator for range beyond the battery — up to 500 miles / 800 km.

Super Long Range Electric

Largest battery capacity for the longest single-charge duty cycles, without an onboard generator.

ALIS

The intelligence behind software-defined logistics

Autonomous Logistics and Integrated Service (ALIS) shifts fleets to a fully predictive model.

ALIS processes real-time data from the vehicle's Relational Knowledge Graph to schedule maintenance, pre-order parts and ensure optimal vehicle uptime.

Weight engineering

A virtuous weight flywheel

A proprietary 750 kg bonded aluminium monocoque replaces the traditional 1.7-tonne steel ladder frame.

Smaller battery pack

We've reallocated over a tonne of chassis weight into usable cargo volume.

4XPower

Software replaces heavy steel components

Transformative System

Superlight’s proprietary "4XP" powertrain eliminates the mechanical transmission with the deletion of the gearbox, mechanical differential, propshaft, and linkages

Innovative Digital Differential

The mechanical differential is replaced with a patent pending proprietary "digital differential" which is developed through software & electronics

Streamlined Efficiency

Provides a more efficient transfer of power to wheels with near-lossless transmission, achieving an overall systemic efficiency greater than 93%

Electronics weigh very little and software weighs nothing, allowing OV-1 to eliminate heavy physical components, reclaim lost energy, and unlock massive structural efficiencies.

Safety by Design

See everything. Prevent more.

A low cockpit, full-width windscreen, 360-degree perception and batteries mounted inboard make safety standard with every OV-1.

15 HD cameras feed modern autonomous safety systems that actively monitor OV-1’s surroundings.

  • Pedestrian/bicyclist blind-spot detection
  • Forward-vision collision avoidance alerts
  • 360-degree birds-eye view

The Superlight Production System

Manufacturing for the 21st Century

1/10thFactory capital expense enables OV-1 to match diesel in purchase price

A flexible, modular assembly process that bypasses traditional, capital-intensive truck manufacturing.

SuperVisor, our AI-enabled real-time digital twin, aggregates in-line optical and sensor data to monitor quality and provide shop-floor teams with real-time performance feedback.
