Tropos Motors, an electric utility vehicle manufacturer, has released a low-speed electric utility vehicle that offers up to 160 miles of driving range.

The new ABLE XR is powered by a 26 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, which features four times more range, compared to the company's standard ABLE low-speed EV configurations, according to the company. The ABLE XR can travel at a max 45 mph, and up to 160 miles (at 25 mph). It can also tow a max of 2000 pounds on public roads, or 3000 pounds on closed campuses.

The ABLE XR and standard chassis accommodates a variety of bed packages, from box truck and flatbed to sweeper and first responder vehicles for firefighting and delivering emergency medical services, the company said in a release. Both are also compatible with the ABLE Easy-Swap option, which allows for customers to change out their bed packages and transform the ABLE to suit various activities.
