About RIZON Truck North America

We're not an electric vehicle that is a truck.
We're a work truck that happens to be electric.

RIZON Truck North America was built for one purpose: to simplify our customers' transition to electric. We bring a proven truck, deep incentive expertise, and hands-on body and vocation knowledge — so fleets get a working truck on day one, funded the right way.

Our Story

From mandate to movement.

May 2023

The RIZON brand launches at ACT Expo. The first RIZON truck is unveiled to the North American commercial fleet market.

Late 2023

The first RIZON trucks hit the streets in North America, beginning real-world fleet deployments as a Daimler / FUSO company.

2025

State ZEV mandates take hold. CARB ACF in California and parallel programs in other states push fleets of 50+ vehicles into compliance. The urgency becomes real.

2026

Daimler and Toyota form Archion, a new public commercial vehicle company combining FUSO and Hino. Rizon continues under the new platform.

Now

A proven, reliable platform with hundreds of RIZON vehicles on the road across North America — serving municipal fleets, utilities, water districts, school districts, and private operators.
