Bollinger Motors pumps brakes on consumer EVs to focus on commercial trucks.

-John Snyder

Bollinger Motors, an electric truck and chassis platform start-up is targeting the medium-duty fleet truck market.

-Richard Truett

DETROIT — Robert Bollinger’s dream of producing his rugged, boxy off-road electric pickup and SUV will have to wait.

-Martin Romjue

The B2 might look like a knock-down kit you could put together yourself with a rudimentary set of instructions, but underneath it’s a clever thing.

-Tom Harrison

There is no question that the Bollinger B1 and B2 have a unique design that is simple and purposeful.

-Andre Smirnov

You get a lot of power, a lot of battery, a 15-kW inverter to run 110-volt accessories from the eight available plugs, and the rugged no-nonsense look of a press-break-built DIY Land Rover Defender.

-Frank Markus

This electric truck and SUV pack some serious specs. The most impressive part of this reveal is the spec sheet. Both of these EVs are plenty potent, with a dual electric-motor setup granting 614 horsepower and 668 pound-feet of torque.

-ANDREW KROK

(Bollinger Motors) wants to sell you one ‘forever truck’ that will last you the rest of your life.

-RONNIE SCHREIBER

It would seem the smartest minds in the room then, are the smaller start-ups like… Bollinger, which already look primed for success…

-Bryan Campbell

It looks like it was sketched with a pencil and a rafter square, which is to say it would appear in a police lineup with old Ford Broncos and new Jeep Wranglers. The guts, though, are unlike any truck yet conceived.

-Ezra Dyer

Bollinger didn’t set out to design a mall prowler. The Bs offer an adjustable suspension that lets the driver dial in between 10 and 20 inches of ground clearance, and a two-speed gearbox with high and low ranges. They sound like true, no-nonsense off-roaders.

-RONAN GLON

Bollinger trumped the B1 by unveiling an impossibly cool pick-up version, the B2. Now, the company has introduced a slew of custom configurations designed to make the B1 and B2 even more bespoke.

-RACHEL CORMACK

Unchanged, though, is the B1 and B2’s focus on off-road ability. Both the pickup truck and SUV offer a two-speed transfer case, 15 inches of ground clearance, and 10 inches of suspension travel.

-Brandon Turkus

In short, the goal is to create a nondisposable truck: a 4×4 rugged enough to last for decades, simple enough for its owner to modify and flexible enough to evolve alongside rapidly advancing battery technology.
