Boulder Electric Vehicle was a manufacturer of electric-powered commercial vans and trucks based in Lafayette, Colorado. The company produced four CARB-certified models: an electric delivery van, a 15-passenger shuttle, a service body and a flat bed. Boulder Electric Vehicles ended production in September 2014.

Boulder Electric Vehicles produced four vehicles and all models shared the same specs and functionality. The Boulder EVs were powered by an 80 kW electric motor, sourced from Longmont-based UQM Technologies, with three available all-electric ranges of 40 mi (64 km), 80 mi (130 km), or 120 mi (190 km). All vehicles used lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery packs. The van model had a payload capacity of 4,500 lb (2,000 kg) and the truck 6,000 lb (2,700 kg). Maximum speed was 65 mph (105 km/h). The DV-500 Delivery Vehicle, the first model delivered to retail customers, was priced at US$100,000 with an 80-kWh battery pack offering a range of 120 mi (190 km).
