All the benefits of an EV fleet at a fraction of the price
Lithium-ion batteries: Powering your shift to an all-EV future
Our technology stack starts with in-house design and manufacturing of state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery packs. Our vertically integrated solution means we create everything — all we need is your current fleet.
Off-the-shelf batteries means on-you risk
Most EV providers use generic batteries. When capacity drops or problems arise, downtime, replacement cost and warranty battles land on you—not the supplier.
Removing battery uncertainty
Our battery-as-a-service solution means we handle all the complexity, leaving you with a simple, monthly cost.
Connect today, upgrade tomorrow
Ongoing improvements in our battery packs mean future range and performance upgrades can be rolled into your fleet over time, without replacing the entire vehicle.
Batteries engineered for scale, certainty and cost
MENA's #1 battery OEM
High-volume in-house manufacturing keeps quality high, costs competitive and supply secure for fleets that need scale.
Battery-as-a-service
Leasing batteries from Shift EV removes uncertainty around capacity-fade and resale value, turning volatile costs into one predictable charge.
Continuous improvement
We constantly upgrade chemistry and form factors, so your vehicles can be refreshed with newer battery tech over time.
Lifecycle management that pays
By extending battery life across multiple uses and second-life placements, we reduce TCO while cutting environmental impact.
Remove battery risk from your balance sheet
Batteries are the biggest unknown for fleets considering an EV switch. That's why we take on degradation, replacement and residual-value risk, so you get one predictable monthly fee instead of volatile costs.
Partnering with Shift EV helps us deliver higher performance, quality, and functionality through upgraded lithium-ion battery technology.
FAQs
How does Shift EV’s subscription model work?
Shift EV offers Transition-as-a-Service (TaaS) — fleets pay a fixed monthly subscription that comes from their reduced fuel and maintenance expenses. There’s no upfront cost, and savings begin on day one. Customers can bring their own vehicle to be Electrofitted, or lease an Electrofitted vehicle from us, both backed by buy-back guarantees and uptime SLAs.
What’s the total cost of ownership (TCO) advantage?
On average, Shift EV customers reduce operating costs by ~60% compared to diesel fleets, while eliminating depreciation risk and downtime. It’s a better TCO profile than both new ICE and new EV options.
How does Electrofitting work?
Electrofitting converts the vehicles you already own into fully electric — at industrial speed and scale. We remove the engine and fuel system and install a Shift-designed electric drivetrain and modular battery pack, integrating directly with your existing chassis and controls.
Our plug-and-play platform covers most commercial classes, from 1-tonne vans to 9-tonne trucks, across leading OEMs such as Ford, Renault, Isuzu and Toyota. Each conversion takes around one hour on our production line, using pre-engineered kits that slot seamlessly into existing vehicles.
The result: a road-ready, warranty-backed EV that performs like new — but at a fraction of the cost.
What kind of range can I expect from Shift EV’s electric vehicles?
Range depends on vehicle class and use case — but every Shift EV is engineered for real-world fleet performance, not lab conditions. Our electric minivans average 200 km per charge (±20%), while pick-ups reach around 150 km under mixed urban loads. For heavier applications, modular battery packs can be scaled to extend range without compromising payload. Before conversion, our engineers analyse your routes, mileage and load profiles to deliver the optimal configuration — so your fleet’s capability matches, or exceeds, what you run today.
What charging options do Shift EV vehicles support?
Shift EV vehicles integrate seamlessly with standard AC and DC infrastructure, including overnight depot chargers, on-route top-ups, and simple wall-mounted units. As part of every project, we assess your fleet’s duty cycle and design a charging setup around your operations — from private depot installations to shared hubs. All systems connect directly to ShiftWare for live visibility on charge status, energy costs, and usage trends.
How does ShiftWare improve fleet operations?
ShiftWare is the digital backbone of every Shift EV fleet — a real-time management platform that keeps vehicles efficient, predictable, and profitable. It provides live insights on battery health, range, uptime, energy use, and cost savings, with AI-based route optimisation and predictive maintenance that eliminate unplanned downtime. Fleet managers can track performance, automate reporting, and benchmark emissions savings — turning electrification data into measurable financial results.
How reliable are Shift EV vehicles?
Reliability is built into every layer of our system — from engineering to after sales. Each vehicle is covered by a 99.9% uptime Service Level Agreement (SLA), meaning your fleet stays on the road and earning. Our modular drivetrain design simplifies servicing: components are pre-engineered for rapid swap-outs, not lengthy repairs. Maintenance is planned, predictable, and handled through a nationwide partner network trained on Shift EV systems.
Through ShiftWare, you’ll receive proactive alerts for battery health, component wear, and service intervals — enabling maintenance before downtime occurs. The result: fewer breakdowns, lower operating costs, and total visibility on fleet performance, day and night.
What is the environmental impact of Electrofitting?
Each converted van eliminates the equivalent emissions of 10 ICE vehicles per year, avoiding ~5.25 kilotons of CO₂ across 1,000 vans. And because the vehicle’s “carbon debt” has already been paid during its original manufacture, Electrofitting produces 40% less carbon than building a new EV.
Powering a second-life
After years in vehicles, our batteries transition into golf carts, forklifts, telecom towers, or solar storage, creating a circular battery economy that saves you money and helps save the planet, too.
