Minimize energy costs by automatically managing charging and monitoring battery health for multiple vehicles.
Plan and modify routes in real-time to accommodate traffic, weather and other unexpected conditions.
Create post-trip reports that coach drivers on how to maximize range and truck battery lifespan.
Detroit Connect safety features gather information from the Detroit Assurance® suite of safety systems to help your fleet operate more safely and efficiently.
Safety
All-Electric Meets Ultimate Safety
The eM2 comes standard with the most innovative safety technology available for medium-duty trucks: the Detroit Assurance® Suite of Safety Systems. And with a steel-reinforced aluminum cab for increased strength, a 2,500-square-inch windshield for greater visibility and battery side-impact protection, the eM2 brings supreme safety to the world of electric.
ABA 5 helps the eM2 mitigate potential collisions with vehicles and moving pedestrians via warnings and automatically engaing partial or full braking.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) to 0 MPH automatically adjusts the eM2's cruising speed to maintain a safe following distance from other vehicles.
Lane Departure Warning makes it easier to keep the eM2 between the lines by notifying the driver if the truck drifts into another lane without signaling.
Side Guard Assist has the driver's back - and their side - by alerting them about objects and pedestrians in their truck's passenger-side blind spot.
Vocational Innovation
- Expanding electric solutions: co-creation efforts are underway to bring a vocational eM2 offering to utility, sweeper, and other work truck applications.
- Focused on Upfit for Flexibility: packaging and design will be based on the familiar M2 platform making it easier for truck equipment manufacturers to upfit the eM2.
