In 2011, GGT Electric, an automotive engineering, design and manufacturing company headquartered in Milford, Michigan, introduced a new line of all-electric trucks for sale. GGT has developed LSV zero-emission electric vehicles for fleet markets, municipalities, universities, and state and federal governments. The company offers 4-door electric pickup trucks, electric passenger vans, and flatbed electric trucks with tilt and discard capabilities.
In 2012, Motiv Power Systems announced its electric powertrain control system (ePCS) can be upgraded to drive all types of trucks, from Class A buses and buses, to work trucks, box trucks, and even £ 52,000 (24,000 kg) garbage truck. The Motiv kit can be used with virtually any chassis of a new truck maker or for retrofit of older trucks. Motiv works with existing truck manufacturers to enable them to sell electrical options to their existing customers.
Pickup truck
In early 2009, Phoenix Motorcars introduced their electric utility train (UTT) fleet to Maui. One of the surviving electric vehicles from the late 1990s was the Chevy S-10 electric pickup truck. Many other vehicles from this era, such as General Motors EV1 are drawn and destroyed. A newcomer is the electric truck Miles Electric ZX40ST, now available in the United States. Miles Electric Vehicles is based in Santa Monica, California.
The Big Bike Company Limited , in Gloucestershire, England, now offers a fully electric pickup truck for sale. Backed by an impressive battery bank, this small utility vehicle is capable of delivering a payload of about 500 kg (1,100 pounds), and has a range of up to 80 miles (130 km). Using a 3-wheel configuration, scrolling and aerodynamic resistance is reduced. As a tricycle can also be driven by motorcycle license.
Semi-trailer and tractor truck
Port of Los Angeles and the South Coast Air Quality Management District have demonstrated heavy-duty heavy-duty heavy-duty trucks capable of transporting full 40-foot (12.2 m) cargo containers. The current design is able to attract 60,000 pound (27,000 kg) cargo containers at speeds up to 10 mph (16 km/h) and has a range of between 30 and 60 miles (48 and 97 km). It uses 2 kilowatt-hours per mile (1.2 kWH/km 4.5 MJ/km), compared to 5 miles per gallon US (47 L/100 km; 6.0 mpg -imp ) for the semi-hostager tractor that it replaces.
1 gallon US (0.83 gallons imperial, 3.8 liters) of fuel equivalent to = 33.7 kwh, according to the US Department of Energy. This electric truck uses 2 kilowatt-hours per mile which is equivalent to just using 10 kwh per every 5 miles (8 km). Diesel trucks are replaced using the equivalent of 33.7 kwh per 5 miles (8 km). So diesel trucks use 3.37 times the amount of energy used by electric trucks. Thus the only variable that discontinues commercial use of electric trucks is the cost of the original vehicle and driving range, due to high battery costs and low specific energy. Because mass production takes place, the cost could eventually be comparable to diesel vehicles and with an increase in batteries, the limited range of electric trucks might not be a problem.
Electrical tractors
Electric tractors have been built since the 1990s. BYD does make an electric tractor.
Float milk
A common example of a battery electric truck is a milk float. Because it makes a lot of stop in milk delivery, it's more practical to use an electric vehicle than a burning truck, which will spend a lot of time; it also reduces noise in residential areas. For much of the 20th century, most of the world's electric street battery vehicles were UK milk buoys.
Garbage truck
With the same driving pattern of delivery vehicles as the milk hovered over, the garbage truck is an excellent candidate for electric propulsion. Most of their time is spent stopping, starting or stopping. This activity is where most internal combustion engines are inefficient. In preparation for the 2008 Olympics, 3,000 garbage trucks of internal combustion engines in Beijing were replaced with lithium ion polymer lorry trucks. Battery purchased approximately $ 3,300 each. In France, some electric garbage trucks produced by Power Vehicle Innovation have been in operation since 2011 in the city of Courbevoie, the first local authority in France to acquire them.
By 2014, North America is home to its own electric garbage truck. Called the ERV (electric refuse vehicle) it hit the road in Chicago in September 2014. This is the first of the purchase orders up to $ 13.4 million up to 20 trucks. PO won in competitive bidding by Motiv Power Systems in 2012. Most of the money used to buy the first truck comes from a DoE grant secured by Senator Barack Obama. The city of Chicago runs ERV Motiv on a variety of landfills and route recycling up to 60 miles, saving 2,688 gallons per year.
Chicago determined that this ERV must meet the requested requirements placed on all its garbage trucks. This includes a range of 60 miles, a payload capacity of nine tons and 1000 pounds per cubic yard of compaction. These specifications make ERV capable of being used anywhere in Chicago. To supply enough electricity to drive trucks and drive hydraulics throughout the day, ERV is equipped with 200 kilowatt-hours of energy, in ten battery packs. Full charging time is 8 hours using Universal Motiv Quick Charger.
Wrightspeed provides electric powertrain for garbage trucks and other medium-duty trucks.
Off-road and mining trucks
In 2011, PapaBravo Innovations, an electric vehicle design, manufacturing and engineering company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada introduced a full line of heavy duty underground mining trucks. This 4x4 off-road truck is the first of its kind; a one-ton platform with full-time 4-wheel-drive capability. They have been designed specifically for the soft-rock underground mining industry. Electric truck lines range from 1/4-ton utility vehicles to 1-ton trucks and 12-passenger passenger transport vehicles.

Newton
Launched in 2006, Newton's electric truck is a commercial electric vehicle from Smith Electric Vehicles. Newton comes in three GVW configurations: 7,500 pounds (3,400 kg), 10,000 pounds (4,500 kg) and 12,000 pounds (5,400 kg). Each is available in short, medium or long wheelbase.
The truck was launched with a 120 kilowatt electric induction motor from Enova Systems, powered by a Lithium-Ion Iron Phosphate battery supplied by Valence Technology. In 2012 Smith re-releases Newton with a new driveline and battery system developed inhouse. Smith offers batteries in 80kWh or 120kWh configuration.
Newton was named Green Commercial of the Year in the electric vehicle part of the Irish Truck Truck of the Year Awards 2010 from Fleet Transport, sponsored by Castrol.
In October 2012, Newton is sold worldwide and is available with three different payload capacities from 6,100 to 16,200 lb (2,800 to 7,300 kg). The lithium-ion battery pack is available in various sizes that provide 55-110 mi (89-177 km) range and a top speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).
E-Force One
Since January 2014, Swiss COOP operates in the Zurich region with a 18 t truck with electric drive. 18 square meters of photovoltaic elements on the roof of the truck supporting battery operation on the side. The truck has a capacity of 300 kW. The solar panel on the roof of the truck along with recovery provides 23 percent of the vehicle's total energy. Trucking distance is 240 km per day. Energy consumption of 130 kWh per 100 km and after minus energy from the solar system and healing, about 100 kWh per 100 km. Comparable diesel engines consume about three times as much energy. The Euro Solar Europe Solar Prize 2014 industry association is given in the transportation and mobility category to Coop for the use of this electric truck. The truck, which Swiss company E-FORCE has developed ONE AG weighs eight tons, weighs 18 tons of gross vehicle and costs 380,000 Swiss francs. This is roughly twice as expensive as the diesel version of the truck. This truck is based on the Iveco Stralis chassis. Conversion in cash consumption is 10 francs per 100 kilometers, with diesel trucks 50 francs. According to Coop, the vehicle has a comparable diesel fuel emissions about the superior and the equivalent in the economy. The truck has two LiFePO4 batteries with a capacity of 120 kWh with a weight of 1300 kg. The battery can be changed in 10 minutes.
E-Force One truck won the German Federal Ecodesign 2014.
Two vehicles from this electric truck come since mid-2014 even in Lidl in Switzerland and a truck at Feldschl̮'̦sschen Beverages Ltd. used. Since June 2015, such vehicles at the Swiss Pistor company are in use. Even Meyer logistics shipping companies use such refrigerated trucks in Berlin. These trucks consume an average of 88 kWh per 100 kilometers when used on a tour of the city, intercity and highway routes. The company achieved two-thirds energy savings compared to diesel trucks. Treatment and lifetime are not higher than comparable diesel trucks. The company wants to use other vehicles of this type.
Emoss
From 2012, eight Dutch companies 2 switches, 020stads distributie, DeRooy, Deudekom, Heineken, Mondial Movers, Sligro and TopMovers each took 100% electric truck under the name "Hytruck" in operation. All trucks are customized solutions with different payloads (up to 10 tons), batteries and diverse packages (150-200 km). The Dutch company Emoss Mobile is a system for the production of B.V. in charge of Oosterhout: (Emoss short). Among them are Heineken electric motor truck weighing 19 tons with a payload of 9 tons and a range of 200 km. With yearly usable usage of about 22 tons CO 2 and the sulfur oxide emissions SOx and nitrogen oxide NO x are suppressed. The last truck was delivered in July 2014. Since autumn 2014, the Swiss company acts as general agent of CEEkon AG Emoss in Switzerland, Austria, and Lichtenstein.
In August 2013, TEDi, the German discount giver integrates a 12-ton electric Emoss motor truck in its fleet to supply multiple stores in North Rhine-Westphalia. This range is about 200 km, but thanks to the chance of charging daily usage profiles 300 to 400 km in one charge can be obtained.
On May 22, 2015 Emoss celebrated the introduction of a 19 ton electric motor truck (based on MAN TGM) with 10-ton cooling and trailer assemblies in the premiere world. Electric trucks are used by Lidl Holland for goods distribution in central Amsterdam. That means that up to 90 tons of CO 2 per 100 km, can be saved. 250 kW electric motor uses LiFePO4 battery with 200 kWh capacity, charged in less than 5 hours.
On June 29, 2015, the Niinivirta Company put the 16-ton Emoss electric truck company into operation for the distribution of goods in Tampere (Finland). Emoss CM1616 (DAF base LF55) has a 250 kW engine with an instant torque of 2700 Nm and 7 tons of payload. The LiFePO4 battery has a total capacity of 160 kWh and is protected from extremely cold conditions by special insulation devices. With full Charger Fast charging takes only 3.5 hours.
Terberg
BMW Group has commissioned a 40-ton truck to transport materials on public roads. The vehicle comes from the Dutch manufacturer Terberg and departs eight times a day between the logistics center and the BMW Munich plant. The truck's battery takes three to four hours to charge. When fully charged, this vehicle has a range of up to 100 kilometers. Thus, electric trucks could theoretically complete the full production day without additional replenishment. Compared to diesel engine trucks, electric trucks will save 11.8 tons of CO 2 each year.
Haul Truck
Company Lithium Storage GmbH builds together with Kuhn company Switzerland AG battery powered truck. The vehicle will operate by the end of 2016. The garbage truck weighs 110 tons. Chassis is Komatsu 605-7. The vehicle has an electric motor with 800 hp and thus can produce 5900 Nm. The battery is a 600 kWh lithium-ion battery. For comparison, this type of diesel vehicles consume about 50,000 to 100,000 liters of diesel per year.
eHighway
In 2018, Siemens and the South Coast Air Quality Management District have launched an electric highway demonstration project near the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach Port, using air ducts to supply trucks with electric power instead of relying onboard batteries.
