William Trainer, Founder, and CEO of Vicinity Motor Corp. stated,

Their foundation building for 2022 began in the third quarter of 2021 when they acquired exciting new lines of business, including EV chassis sales alongside EAVX and low-floor electric shuttle bus sales through their new partner Optimal-EV. While revenue from their transit bus business is inconsistent at times, they are on track to generate more than $140 million in revenue next year. By any measure, this will be a tremendous year for Vicinity. Their debut into the high-demand market for electric trucks and shuttle buses is projected to fill in the gaps for future periods of fewer transit bus deliveries.
