American Chariot Personal Transportation Vehicle
The American Chariot is a three-wheeled, electric Personal Transportation Vehicle (PTV) with variable
speeds to 20 mph—five times faster than walking. The Chariot‘s standing riding position gives you an
easy, unobstructed view of equipment, employees, and plants on benches or in beds. You will be able
to stand above the crops, inspect plants easier, supervise employees, more efficiently monitor operations
and respond quickly to emergencies. Supervisors, growers, buyers, and maintenance staff will all find their productivity enhanced by the American Chariot. You will be able to perform your job more efficiently and
more frequently. A 32" width and a 27" turning radius allows the Chariot to operate both indoors and outdoors
with ease. Easily passes through doorways and down greenhouse aisles. With a total payload capacity of
450 lbs., a minimal footprint, and zero emission electric motors, the Chariot is a practical alternative to larger vehicles (pick-up trucks, SUVs, golf carts, Mules, ATVs) for nurseries and greenhouses. The PTV can carry
tools, pH testers, supplies, and other equipments. An available trailer makes the chariot a hardworking tool
for nursery operators.
