E-truck: Galibot, fleet electrification without infrastructure
The Galibot e-truck requires no dedicated charging station, no infrastructure investment, and no connection delays. A standard 220 V household outlet is all it takes. It’s the most accessible entry point for electrifying a professional fleet today.
E-truck: why the Galibot is the first step toward electrification
Electrifying a transport fleet often faces the same obstacles: the cost of charging stations, grid connection delays, team training, and resistance to change. The Galibot removes these barriers: its compact e-truck charges from any standard 220 V outlet in 3 hours, for around €1. No main switchboard upgrade, no guaranteed power requirement, no contract with a charging operator.
For a company that has never operated electric vehicles, it’s a risk-free entry point: deploying a first e-truck on short-distance missions allows you to validate use cases, train teams, and measure savings before making further investments. The Galibot is the fastest proof-of-concept tool to implement. It is assembled in France, in a dedicated factory that ensures traceability and after-sales support.

The Galibot e-truck in real-world conditions
First on-site deployment without prior work
A Galibot can be delivered, charged, and operational in less than a week. No electrician, no work authorization, and no power outage required. A standard workshop or utility room outlet is sufficient. For sites handling larger load volumes, the Galibot light electric truck offers a version with a higher-capacity dump bed.
Proof of concept before broader electrification
Before investing in a fleet of electric vans or charging stations, many companies first deploy one or two Galibots to concretely measure savings, identify compatible use cases, and convince decision-makers with real data rather than projections. Multi-building logistics sites also find in the e-truck a complementary solution to the ride-on electric forklift for outdoor connections.
Gradual fleet expansion without doubling fixed costs
Each additional Galibot generates no extra infrastructure costs. Fleet expansion is linear — one vehicle, one outlet, one AM-licensed driver — with no threshold effect linked to charging capacity. Logistics and airport platforms operating in low-emission zones (LEZ) find in the Galibot e-truck an immediately compliant replacement solution.
