Ride-on suction sweeper RAVO E2

streetelectricbattery-powered

Overview
The RAVO E2 is a purpose-built all-electric compact sweeper engineered for urban and municipal cleaning operations. It minimises emissions, noise and water use while providing the performance required for daily street and public area maintenance. The vehicle is designed from the ground up for electric operation to optimise energy use, battery life and system reliability.

The Concept
The RAVO E2 is engineered as a born-electric sweeper rather than a conversion. Component selection and system architecture are tailored to electric power to ensure efficient use of every kW, maximised battery autonomy and long-term reliability.

Optimised energy management
The E2 uses six independently controlled e-motors for drive train, suction fan, hydraulic pump and brushes. Each motor runs only when required, reducing continuous energy draw. Energy-saving features include an econometer for real-time kW feedback, targeted heating controls and a sleep mode to extend battery autonomy.

Patented battery swap system
The patented quick battery swap system enables battery replacement in under two minutes, supporting multi-shift operations without fast charging and allowing slower AC charging to better preserve battery state of health (SoH).

Operator-focused operation
The E2 integrates operator-centered hardware and software: an econometer to guide energy-efficient driving, cabin pre-conditioning during charging, improved cab entry step and new-generation seating. Optional items include a heated floor mat and in-cab storage to increase comfort and usability.
