The order follows Agrale’s initial order for five zero emission drivetrains in August 2024, which have been successfully delivered. Under the terms of the latest order, Equipmake will deliver electric drivetrain systems to Agrale in batches between now and mid-2026.
Equipmake is supplying Agrale with a fully integrated electric drivetrain system combining an electric motor, inverter, control systems, and battery pack, utilising both the Company's products and technology, together with components sourced from third parties.
The order from Agrale extends Equipmake’s current live order book to over £10 million, further underscoring its position as an industry-leading supplier of high‑performance, zero‑emission drivetrain systems.
“This expansion of our partnership with Agrale represents a significant step for Equipmake and reflects the Company's move to generate higher margin product and technology sales” said Ian Foley, CEO of Equipmake. “Supplying electric drivetrain systems for 50 buses is a major milestone in our joint mission to bring zero‑emission mass transit to South America. This growing success story reflects the trust Agrale places in our solutions and our shared commitment to developing a robust sustainable transport network in the region.”
Based in Snetterton, Norfolk, Equipmake provides the complete electric vehicle solution, offering everything from motors to fully electrified platforms, supporting primarily the automotive, commercial vehicle, marine and aerospace sectors.
“Agrale is proud to deepen our partnership with Equipmake through this substantial new agreement” added Edson Ares Sixto Martins, Director of Agrale. “Their zero-emission drivetrain technology has proved to be highly reliable and efficient in our operations, and this expanded order underscores the strength of our collaboration in delivering clean, quiet electrified public transit.”
