The world known auto brand Volvo plans testing electric trucks in California since next year. Mass production of vehicles is expected to be started in 2020. The company president Claes Nilsson said that the project might be regarded as an important step towards mass electrification of world transport.
Volvo demonstration units will be based on FE electric trucks unveiled by a company in May 2018. Those trucks got 2-speed transmission and 370kW engine. One charging is enough for covering up to 200 km. 23 trucks are expected to take part in testing together with other zero-emission equipment.
One more auto brand Tesla Motors starts mass-production of electric trucks in 2019 and Volvo is expected to be the only competitor in the North American market.
Vion Company constructs a network of electric charging stations locating them along the main interstate routes of the USA (every 600 km). The project intends building special oriented stations for road trains equipped by rest areas. Appropriate infrastructure building moves fleet electrification forward. Vion Company invites investors to take part in the project.
