Total Cost of Ownership Considerations for Zero Emissions Trucks

Innovation roadmap for the total cost of ownership (TCO) considerations for zero emissions trucks.

Zero-Emission Truck Market Gains Momentum

The vast majority of new trucks produced today are powered by diesel engines, but this is expected to change, as with other on-road vehicle sectors. The magnitude of greenhouse gas emission reductions required to reach national targets necessitates a total decarbonization of the truck business over the next 30 years. This will only be possible if zero-emission powertrains are widely deployed.
