Jay McKinsey + 1,490 August 15, 2020 This was the first J.B. Hunt Intermodal delivery using this all-electric Class 8 truck, and it pulled out of the Southgate terminal this week. The company said it barely made a sound. The transport was a 120-mile haul for Walmart, and it kicked off a three-month testing phase. J.B. Hunt plans to integrate the eCascadia with its day-to-day fleet operations in Los Angeles. Fully charged, the eCascadia is expected to have a range of up to 250 miles, which makes it perfect for local and regional distribution. The all-electric tractor has a 525-horsepower motor and can recharge to 80% in just 90 minutes. https://cleantechnica.com/2020/08/14/j-b-hunts-1st-delivery-with-fully-electric-freightliner-ecascadia/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
