Frequently asked questions

What every fleet
asks us first.

Real questions from logistics managers who evaluated the EV48 in the last 12 months. If your question isn’t here, write to us directly.

— 01
What happens to the battery after the 8-year warranty?
CATL LFP pack, chemistry with +3,500 cycles to 80% capacity. At 40,000 km/year that’s +400,000 km. After warranty, INALCO replaces individual modules (not the full pack), at ~$1.2M CLP per module. The pack has 8 modules.
— 02
Does it work in northern Chile summer?
Validated between -35°C (Heihe, China) and +45°C (Turpan). We currently operate units in Antofagasta and Calama with active thermal BMS. No significant range loss up to 42°C ambient.
— 03
What if there is no fast charger on my route?
EV48 charges AC at 6.6 kW: a typical base wallbox brings it to 100% overnight (≤9 h from 10 % to 100 %). With 305 km CLTC, most last-mile fleets don’t need en-route fast charging — only at base.
— 04
How long does importing take if I pay today?
Santiago stock available: delivery in 5 business days. Out of stock: 90 days from China port, +30 days 3CV Chile homologation. Total ~120 days for volumes > 10 units.
— 05
Are there financing or leasing options?
Yes — partnership with iMotion (operating leasing) and Banco Estado / BCI (direct financing). Typical EV48 monthly payment at 5 years: $685,000 CLP, maintenance included.
— 06
Can I customize the van (refrigerated, special kits)?
Yes — certified partners in Santiago for refrigerated (-18°C / +5°C), textile partitioning, pallet anchoring and drawers. Adds 60-90 days to the timeline. Quoted separately.
