Sodium-ion starter batteries for Canadian importers
Canadian winters are one of the toughest tests for any starter battery. Manufacturers state low-temperature cranking for sodium-ion, which is why we want to talk with Canadian distributors who can evaluate the range under their own conditions.
The Canada market
- Pick-ups and SUVs dominate the aftermarket, alongside large commercial fleets.
- Long cold seasons make cold cranking and winter charging behaviour key buying criteria.
- Trucking corridors and remote communities rely on 24V heavy-duty starting.
Who we want to work with
- Battery and automotive parts distributors
- Fleet maintenance groups
- Snowmobile, powersports and motorcycle dealers
- Independent garage networks

Why sodium-ion for starting
Hot and cold climates
Built for demanding hot and cold climates: indicative ambient conditions from −40 °C to +40 °C. Cold-start capability down to −40 °C is manufacturer-stated for selected H-series models; actual vehicle fitment and performance must be checked per model.
Abundant raw materials
Sodium is widely available, so a sodium-ion range diversifies your portfolio alongside lead-acid, AGM and EFB. The IEA projects potential lithium and copper supply gaps by 2035 — a projection, not resource depletion. Source: IEA, Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2026
A new category for your channel
Sodium-ion starter batteries are still new in most markets, giving early distributors room to build a position. Pricing is set per inquiry; no fixed global prices apply.
Where we stand in Canada
- GreenPower has no Canadian office, stock or distributor yet.
- Cold-weather behaviour is manufacturer-stated; independent winter testing has not been done by GreenPower.
- North American group sizes and terminal positions are checked per application.
The right time to enter sodium-ion is now.
We are open to strategic and exclusive-partnership talks per market. No exclusive rights have been granted yet; terms are agreed individually.
