Why XL Fleet Shares Are Trading Lower Today

We believe market interest in commercial fleet electrification solutions remains strong, however, supply chain issues and wide scale shortages of key materials, especially microchips, continue to impact the global automotive industry, significantly interrupting the ability of fleet customers to secure new vehicles on which our electrified drive systems are installed,” said Dimitri Kazarinoff, CEO of XL Fleet.

XL Fleet is a provider of fleet electrification solutions for commercial vehicles in North America.

Price Action: XL Fleet has traded as high as $35 and as low as $5.41 over a 52-week period.
