THE FUTURE IS WATT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

A truck. A driver. A fuel station. Operations seem to look the same, so why switch to electric? To start, it’s an easy change. Mack and Volvo have prioritized round-the-clock customer service programs. They are working hard to make adoption easy and the transition seamless by offering complete service packages. Mack’s Vehicle-as-a-Service (Vaas) package includes all maintenance needs, an option to bundle all costs into one monthly payment, and GuardDog Connect, which monitors and protects the battery’s health. Volvo sells their electric trucks along with their Volvo Gold Contract. This service contract ensures all maintenance, towing, unplanned repair

EVERYONE WONDERS, WHAT’S NEXT?

WHERE WILL TECHNOLOGY TAKE US?

HOW CAN WE IMPROVE OUR TRUCKS?

AND HOW CAN WE ENSURE THAT THE FUTURE IS MORE SUSTAINABLE?

Mack and Volvo are already making great strides toward a future where electric trucks are a reality. They’re leading the way with multiple initiatives. They’re implementing the total infrastructure needed to keep electric vehicles on the road by increasing the number of charging locations. They’re working toward zero emissions. They’re making the trucks safer with more advanced technology.

This is no longer a question of IF electric trucks are the future. It’s just a matter of WHEN you’ll see one in your own city.

and uptime services are taken care of. When it comes to the trucks themselves, drivers are noticing a world of difference. Thanks to the absence of a diesel engine, the cabins are much quieter and impose less fatigue on drivers. The drive is more enjoyable without the constant vibration and noise of the engine. That’s a huge benefit to all of our drivers.

But, let’s go back to where this all started. The move to electric has become more of a need as we look at our environment. These electric trucks from Mack and Volvo have zero exhaust emissions. Cleaner air, anyone? The improved air quality also gives our drivers a better work environment. Electric options help to make our cities cleaner - not to mention quieter. Electric vehicles are much quieter than diesel engines, which will allow trucks to perform more assignments during off-peak hours. Another added benefit. Along with all the benefits of electric, the newer trucks also include the latest advancements in technology. They have more safety features integrated into their operations. The design is intuitive, so it’s easy to adopt, with features such as driver assist and lane departure warning that will help keep everyone safe on the road.
