Purolator gets more e-trucks
The new 55 e-trucks from Motiv, an US-based manufacturer of class 4-6 electric trucks, bring the Canadian transport provider’s total truck count to 60, which have been in service on daily routes throughout the country.
Purolator’s first five Motiv e-trucks were delivered in 2021. The vehicles have completed tens of thousands of kilometres of deliveries while reducing tailpipe greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The company expects to invest USD 1 billion to electrify 60% of its last-mile fleet in Canada over the next seven years. This includes a plan to purchase 3,500 fully electric trucks and to electrify more than 60 terminals in Canada. (ben)
