World's Largest Manufacturer
Smith has led the electric commercial vehicle industry for over 80 years.
Smith Electric Vehicles is the world's largest manufacturer of road-going commercial electric vehicles. We have influenced the evolution of zero emission vehicles since 1920 - and there are thousands of Smith vehicles around the world in operation today.
Smith's unrivalled expertise in innovative battery and motor technology can be seen in Newton, the world's first high performance 7.5t electric truck, launched in 2006. We further raised the bar in 2007 with Edison, the world's first sub-3.5t zero emission van and minibus.
“Our unique heritage is the strong foundation that has made Smith a market leader in commercial electric vehicles and we are already building on this bedrock with the launch of higher function vehicles such as Newton and Edison. We pride ourselves on innovation and more world-first products will follow.”
