Workhorse to Showcase Expanded W56 EV Product Line at Work Truck Week 2025

Building zero-emission commercial vehicles for all types of work, Workhorse Group Inc. is returning to Work Truck Week 2025 to showcase recent additions and preview what’s next in its expanding W56 electric vehicle platform.

Billed as North America’s largest work truck event, Work Truck Week returns to the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, March 4–7, 2025. With the show’s tagline of More Than a Trade Show, Work Truck Week encompasses The Work Truck Show, Green Truck Summit, NTEA Annual Meeting, Work Truck Week Ride & Drive, educational sessions and more.

Attendees can experience the W56 208″ extended wheelbase step van firsthand in the Work Truck Week Ride & Drive. Workhorse said that this model, with its increased cargo capacity, recently completed durability testing simulating over 250,000 highway miles and is designed to tackle the toughest delivery and service routes. It features 1,200 cubic feet of cargo space and a custom rolling side door, providing quick, ergonomic access to the cargo area.

Workhorse will preview the upcoming 140-kWh version of its W56 chassis designed to meet the needs of fleet operators with shorter-range requirements, with an estimated range of 100 miles. It will be marketed as an attractive cost-saving solution compared to the 210-kWh version, making it more appealing for fleets looking to electrify while aligning with their operational needs. Workhorse is now accepting orders through its certified dealer network for the 140-kWh W56 stripped chassis, with deliveries set for 2026.

“The 10 million real-world miles our vehicles have logged tell the true story of Workhorse’s electric vehicle expertise,” said Ryan Gaul, president, commercial vehicles at Workhorse. “We’re proud to design and build our trucks right here in the Midwest, bringing advanced manufacturing jobs back to America’s heartland. Unlike most EV makers, we design and build our Class 5-6 step vans completely in-house—from frame to final paint. At NTEA Work Truck Week, just down the road from our Indiana facility, we’re showcasing our latest innovation: the new 140-kWh W56. Our vehicles prove every day that they can handle the demands of North American fleets, from last-mile delivery to vocational applications. More businesses are recognizing the real savings of switching to EVs, and we’re proud to lead that change with American-made solutions that are built to last.”
