Fleets tested Volvo VNR Electric Class 8 tractors for three years: Here’s what they learned. Requirements for more aggressive emission after-treatment and the hardware to achieve that add cost and complexity for fleet operators. However, heavy-duty electric trucks from traditional makers have started to hit the market.

Going bi adds several nifty new benefits to driving electric. It turns an EV into a mobile battery that can be used to provide backup power to a home or business, and to provide services to the electrical grid, generating revenue for the vehicle owner and potentially offsetting a significant part of the purchase price of the vehicle.
