Velocity EV, initially launched in 2023 as a subsidiary of Velocity Vehicle Group, has rebranded as Rizon USA – Authorized U.S. Distributor of the Rizon Brand. Under its new name, Rizon USA said will expand its national dealer network, and its sales and support network across the U.S. medium-duty truck market. Daimler Truck is the manufacturer of Rizon Truck.

Rizon Truck offers six Class 4-5 all-electric, zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) cabover models, which it said are designed for urban and last-mile deliveries. The first four models—e18L, e18M, e16L, and e16M—debuted in May 2023. The company adds that two enhanced models, e18Mx and e18Lx, will launch in 2025, featuring an upgraded payload capacity of 18,850 lbs., increasing freight efficiency.

“Rizon USA is proud to be the authorized U.S. distributor for Daimler Truck, and we are dedicated to expanding our dealer network to support fleet operators who need reliable, cost-effective, medium-duty zero-emission trucks,” said Alex Voets, general manager of Rizon USA. “As we transition from Velocity EV to Rizon USA, we remain part of the Velocity Vehicle Group family, driven by the same purpose to meet the business needs of customers.”
