5 American, 6 Canadian: Workhorse W56 arrives in the True North

Electric truck brand Workhorse is bringing its W56 Class 5 and 6 electric trucks to Canada thanks to a new agreement with a Canadian dealer group and fleet management provider offering truck and trailer sales, parts, repair, and 24/7 roadside assistance and towing services across the Northern nation.

Building on years of electric step van deployments in Canada and underscoring the company’s commitment to Canada as a growth region, the new dealer agreement with Tristan Fleet Management marks the first-ever Canadian dealer partnership for Workhorse.

“Canadian fleets need proven electric trucks that deliver on quality and performance in any condition,” said James Griffin, Chief Revenue Officer at Workhorse. “The W56 has already proven itself on this front in real-world fleet service across Canada. Tristan’s strong reputation, its extensive network, and ability to provide around-the-clock roadside support will be extremely valuable as Workhorse continues to grow our presence in the country.”

Workhorse has been selling and supporting electric trucks in Canada since 2021 through its partnership with Purolator, a Canadian-owned leading integrated freight, package and logistics solutions provider that has grown alongside the rapid expansion of online shopping for everything from groceries to car parts and road-ready motorcycles has also seen the expansion of last-mile delivery contractors. These fleet operators and drivers are essential workers who keep the online economy rolling, and they are getting positively pummeled by this year’s record fuel prices, a product of America’s latest “dumb oil war” in Iran.

And, after Workhorse’ fleet logged its 20 millionth mile driven with zero tailpipe emissions , you could hardly claim that it’s an unknown quantity – a fact that Tristan understands.
