Surrey, British Columbia – June 6, 2025 – RIZON, the all-electric commercial truck brand from Daimler Truck, has delivered two RIZON e18L trucks to Plett Truck Repair, further advancing the brand’s growing presence in Canada’s zero-emission commercial vehicle market.
The two medium-duty electric trucks—each upfitted with a box body—will be integrated into Plett’s customer service operations, underscoring the growing appeal of zero-emission solutions among forward-thinking commercial vehicle specialists.
Based in British Columbia, Plett Truck Repair is well known in the regional trucking industry for its commitment to quality service and innovation.
“This delivery reflects consumer confidence in RIZON’s technology and our commitment to supporting a cleaner, more efficient future for commercial transport,” said Andreas Deuschle, Global Head of RIZON Truck. “We’re proud to partner with businesses like Plett Truck Repair that recognize both the operational and environmental advantages of adopting electric trucks.”
The delivery caps off a busy period for RIZON, which also completed handovers to several municipalities in Vancouver and Quebec, as well as a business in Victoria, B.C.
EV Incentives in Canada
RIZON provides medium-duty electric trucks that meet the growing demand for sustainable fleet solutions. These trucks are eligible for the iMHZEV federal incentive, which offers approximately $75,000 per vehicle at the point of sale, with additional provincial incentives of up to $75,000 available in British Columbia.
With a growing dealer network across British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec, and models offering up to 257 km of range, RIZON trucks are designed to deliver real-world value in urban logistics, service, and municipal applications.

RIZON Trucks at a Glance
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, and are currently in operation for customers on American and Canadian streets.
The class 4-5 medium-duty battery-electric vehicles will range from 15,995 to 18,850 lbs. in gross vehicle weight (GVW) for Canadian customers and can run up to 177 km (for M size variant with 2 battery packs) and up to 257 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.
*As of October 2023 under standard testing conditions with 50% payload. The range may vary based on environment, conditions, battery health/charge level, recuperation usage, road traffic/profile, and style of driving.
