Our Vision:

To exceed our customers' expectations by being the leader in providing the highest value hybrid drive systems for medium and heavy duty vehicles.

Odyne was formed in 2001 for the sole purpose of developing and producing electric and hybrid electric propulsion systems for Class 5, 6, 7 and 8 vehicles. In January 2009, Odyne's assets were acquired by the parent company of DUECO, Inc. and Utility Equipment Leasing Corporation (UELC), and relocated to a 100,000 square foot shared production facility in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Odyne operates independently yet benefits from the combined strength of our partner companies (350+ employees) and has expanded the production and technological advancement of plug-in electric hybrid drive systems for medium and heavy-duty trucks. Odyne advanced plug-in hybrid systems are available for a wide variety of applications and are sold directly to final stage manufacturers and other companies that sell trucks directly to end use customers and fleets.

Typical customers include fleet managers and/or executive decision-makers from the utility, construction and other niche industries. Odyne technology provides our customers with the following benefits:

Our plug-in system allows trucks to operate on the internal combustion engine and battery power (the Odyne system is independent of fuel type; diesel, gas, CNG or other is also acceptable), reducing carbon emissions, decreasing fleet fuel costs and maintenance needs, all while providing sustainable energy solutions.

 

There are many incentives to purchase a hybrid system. Check out our tax credits and incentives page for more information.

Our Plug-In Hybrid system has launch assist & regenerative braking. The electric motor generator slows the vehicle & uses "captured" energy to recharge the battery system.
