I-BOARD REX 5525

The I-BOARD REX 5525 is a battery-electric haulage truck from I-BOARD, built on a chassis-with-cabin layout with a sleeper cabin and a 4x2 axle configuration. It is a commercial proposition: pricing is by quotation rather than a published ex-showroom figure, so fleet buyers are expected to engage the manufacturer directly for a quote.

Range and charging

I-BOARD does not publish a certified range figure for the REX 5525, so treat the driving range as route-dependent. Full charging takes about 7 hours on the supplied charger, which suits overnight depot charging for fixed daily runs rather than opportunistic mid-shift top-ups. The electric drivetrain means zero tailpipe emissions, which matters for fleet operators running inside city limits or under green-zone restrictions.

Performance and payload

The REX 5525 is powered by a PMSM motor rated at 160/250 kW with 2400 Nm of torque, paired with a 6F+1R auto-shift e-Gearbox that includes a PTO provision for body-mounted equipment. Gradeability is quoted at 28-58 percent. The truck carries a published payload of 55,000 kg on a customizable body over a 6-tyre chassis with power steering, tubeless tyres, tiltable steering and a driver information display.

Who should buy it

The REX 5525 suits operators moving heavy loads on predictable routes where overnight charging works and per-kilometre fuel cost is the deciding factor. The 7-hour charge time makes it a single-shift vehicle unless a second truck or a fast-charging plan is part of the equation. Because pricing and range are commercial and route-specific, buyers should get a written quotation from an I-BOARD dealer and validate the range claim against their own duty cycle before committing.
