Volvo Trucks to introduce all-electric Class 8 trucks in North America
Volvo Trucks to introduce all-electric Class 8 trucks in North America – TheTrucker.com
"As part of an innovative partnership between the Volvo Group, California’s South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), and industry leaders in transportation and electrical charging infrastructure, Volvo Trucks will introduce all-electric Class 8 truck demonstrators in California next year, and commercialize them in North America in 2020.
...
The demonstration units will be based on the technology currently being used in the Volvo FE Electric, which Volvo Trucks presented in May and will begin selling in Europe in 2019."
Class 8 trucks are your classic semis, so Tesla will have competition in that market, hopefully. -
The Problem(s) with Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs)
I have been contemplating a BEV as my next purchase. But there are pitfalls that I see, including this one:
- A BEV out of fuel (lack of sufficient charge) cannot be restored to running condition as a roadside service. The car would have to be towed. This is not a small problem. Not only is this expensive, but would clog highways with disabled cars for a longer length of time than a gas and go.
