Custom Truck and Battle Motors Announce Partnership

Oct 25, 2022

Custom Truck One Source (Custom Truck), is excited to announce the expansion of their offerings with the addition of Battle Motors to their truck inventory.

As part of the partnership, Custom Truck will offer Battle Motor’s full cabover line including electric trucks, as well as parts and service to the Kansas City, MO market and other cities. The partnership will enable Battle Motors to leverage Custom Truck’s distribution channels and expand their market presence while providing first-class customer service and support on a national level.

“We are excited to expand Custom Truck’s chassis offerings through the addition of Battle Motors,” said Fred Ross, CEO of Custom Truck. “This partnership will allow us to offer electric powered options to our customers as part of our “one source” offering.”

Custom Truck offers a comprehensive range of services to the heavy equipment market. The company sells, rents, customizes, remanufactures, and services a diverse range of machinery and assets. The addition of Battle Motors products allows Custom Truck to offer CARB emission compliance solutions for sales and rental customers, better serving the refuse & municipal markets.

No newcomer to the industry, Battle Motors is building upon decades of design and engineering expertise to produce heavy duty trucks—including a fully electric chassis. Every truck is purpose-built to excel in a multitude of environments and applications, including refuse, recycling, construction, utility, and delivery. In the refuse and recycling space, electric trucks are available in many applications including rear and automated side-loaders.

“Battle Motors is pleased to aggressively enter the Utility Truck space with the industry leader Custom Truck One Source. We are focused on driving technology and innovation that gives our customers exceptional value, confidence, and performance. Partnering with a leading organization like Custom Truck allows us to step-up that mission,” said Michael Patterson, CEO & Chairman of Battle Motors.
