“I am proud to announce that our Class 3 vehicle line is now in production mode at our Tunica facility. Our team has been working seven days a week, day and night, getting this plant reconfigured and ready for Class 3 production,” said CEO David Michery.
Throughout the months of September to December, Mullen has planned a gradual increase in production rates. Once the ramp-up is complete, the Tunica facility will have the capacity to produce 3,000 Class 3 vehicles annually.
So far, the company has secured $79 million in purchase orders for a total of 1,250 Mullen THREE Class 3 electric trucks from Randy Marion Automotive Group and MGT Lease Company.
With a starting price of $68,500, the Mullen THREE is eligible for a federal tax incentive of $7,500. This efficient Class 3 electric truck boasts an 11,000 Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, along with a tight turning radius of 38 feet. Its exceptional visibility enhances maneuverability on narrow urban roads.
