EV startup Harbinger reveals a smaller work truck with electric and hybrid variants

Los Angeles-based EV startup Harbinger has unveiled its second vehicle, the HC Series Cab, a smaller medium-duty work truck offered in both all-electric and hybrid variants, with the hybrid model providing up to 500 miles of range. The truck is designed for ease of use with features like easy entry and exit, a tight turning radius, and a versatile chassis that can be outfitted with cargo boxes or flatbeds. Harbinger aims to address fleet operators’ traditional trade-offs between payload, maneuverability, range, and onboard capability by delivering a platform that outperforms legacy diesel trucks through electrification and a range-extended hybrid system. Founded in 2022, Harbinger has rapidly expanded, raising $100 million in a Series B round in January 2025 and $160 million in Series C funding by November. The company has secured notable customers such as FedEx and RV manufacturer THOR Industries for its larger truck chassis, which also supports electric and hybrid powertrains. Beyond
