Propagating Productivity and Sustainability

Columbia electric vehicles are built for work. Frame strength is the foundation of our design, so we start from high strength tubular, channel, or 10 gauge structural steel and powder-coat for top tier corrosion resistance, even in moist agricultural environments. Columbia has vehicles available from 1-passenger up to 8-passengers, with cargo capacities up to 4,000 lbs and towing capacities up to 18,000 lbs, and many vehicles offering a range of 35 to 40 miles on a single charge. All zero-emission Columbia electric vehicles charge using standard wall outlets, and can share standard heavy duty charging cables.  

Harvesting Innovation

Columbia vehicles offer modern solutions to modern problems at your nursery, greenhouse, or aquaculture facility! With a wide range of configurations, from 3-wheel to 4-wheel models, models with overhead storage, optional cabs, or folding seats to convert from cargo to passenger space, there’s a Columbia vehicle for any application!  Choose from AC or DC drive systems on select models, select the battery chemistry that best fits your application, and enjoy available telemetry systems to monitor your fleet!  And don’t forget creature comforts such as cup holders, charge ports and heaters!

Nurturing Growth

Our robust electric vehicles will keep your team running, and support your operations’ growth! Our highly configurable pure electric vehicles give you the options you need to get the most out of each vehicle in the fleet. Many Columbia platforms are suitable for indoor and outdoor use, and can be configured with storage boxes, tool boxes, and equipment racks. 

And there is a wide range of vehicle models to incorporate into your fleet! From moving between narrow aisles in the greenhouse, to narrow aisles of your distribution center, the Columbia Expediter and Columbia Payloader are on the job! From towing racks of plants, to pallets of sod, to dumpsters and trailers, the Columbia Payloader PRO, Utilitruck or Stockchaser give you considerable variety to choose from! And for transporting VIPs to any part of your facility, the Journeyman is available in 2-, 4-, 6-, or 8- passenger models!
