The Electric Broom Bear is the brand new all-electric street sweeper manufactured by Elgin Sweeper with a Battle Motors LNT EV chassis. The Electric Broom Bear is a first of its kind truck-mounted sweeper utilizing an all-electric chassis.
Developed specifically for vocational use, the electric chassis is from Battle Motors, formerly Crane Carrier Company, which has a 76 year history of providing heavy duty trucks and has an extensive and highly trained dealer network for service and support. The electric LNT has been in service since 2022 across a variety of vocations including refuse, delivery and now sweeping. The additional weight of the electric chassis was taken into consideration when developing the Electric Broom Bear, and customers can rest at ease knowing the payload capacity is the same as a standard Broom Bear. The fully electric Battle Motors LNT is a narrow, nimble, and durable workhorse now delivering zero emissions, zero fuel costs, and lower maintenance costs. Good for the planet and good for business while reducing an environmental footprint.
The charging port on the Electric Broom Bear is a standard SAE J1772 CCS, compatible with both level 2 or level 3 chargers. Level 2 AC charging will enable overnight charging while Level 3 DC-DC charging will enable fast charging, if needed.
