Understanding Effects of Payload and Towing on Commercial EV Range
There is a wave that is taking over the auto industry and that is the electric vehicle wave. A lot of vehicle manufacturers are considering adopting electric operation vehicles, there are several that have them in the works, and will be released in the next couple of years. Trucks are still going to be able to function at full capacity with the way they are being built. The clean tail pipe emissions will allow truckers to come in with open arms to any area.
Key Takeaways:
- These new trucks that will begin launching in 2022 are safer and better for the environment.
- There are electric waves happening all over, a lot of manufacturers have new ones coming out.
- These vehicles will be able to function and then return to the facility to be charged over night.
“Fuel economy on internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles nosedives at peak payload or towing load, but we accept the trade-off because the overall range on those vehicles is more than enough.”
