Motiv Electric Trucks has announced its fleet of medium-duty electric trucks and buses has collectively surpassed 5 million miles driven. The company says the milestone reflects its 15 years of experience in developing, testing, and deploying electric powertrains while collaborating with builders, suppliers, and service providers in the industry.
Since 2009, Motiv has developed and deployed more than 370 electric step vans, box trucks, and shuttles. These vehicles have delivered over 300 million pounds of goods while achieving a 98% uptime last year, according to a news release. By replacing diesel and gasoline with electricity, the company says its vehicles have eliminated more than 15 million pounds of CO2 and nearly a ton of PM 2.5 particulate matter from the air.
“We are very appreciative of our customers for believing in us, sharing our vision of cleaner commerce, and investing clean trucking to benefit their communities,” said Scott Griffith, chief executive officer of Motiv, in a release. “We’re also grateful for our employees and partners who produce such high quality and safe vehicles to make this milestone possible. We’re already looking ahead to the next 5 million miles.”
