“ Every large fleet faces the challenge of electrifying their vehicles and machinery ,” says Mackle .
“ The drive to decarbonise , particularly in heavy and carbon-intensive industries – coupled with ESG pressures and a desire to take advantage of the lower cost of ownership of EVs – means commercial fleets , landowners and operators are without an option . They ’ re crying out for a true 4x4 that ’ s all-electric and zero emission . This is why Munro exists .”
A RUGGED EV THAT GOES WHERE NO OTHERS DARE
Munro vehicles recognised the trend in electrification . Born in the Scottish Highlands , the company is well-positioned and wellequipped to build a vehicle that can tackle the harshest of terrains and climates .
With a 61.2kWh battery and a motor that puts out 220kW , the Munro MK _ 1 EV comes in three optimised variants : utility , range , or performance . It ’ s not your average vehicle . It ’ s not built as a high-end city run-around or a commuter . The Munro EV will service those working in mountain and rural response units , and can be applied to infrastructure and industrial operations and land management .
The Munro MK _ 1 ’ s simplistic , functional design makes it the electrified modern competitor of the Land Rover Defender .
“ In Scotland , we have tackled rugged Highland trails , traversed roaring rivers and headed-up steep gradients that other 4x4s simply could not . In harsh conditions of torrential rain and morning fog , the MK _ 1 takes the operator over these rolling hills with ease ,” says Mackle .
