medical and climate change costs), the net present benefit would be $5,700 per seat. The typical cost of such a bus is $110,000, and the average fuel economy is approximately 6.35 Without externalities (e.g., mpg, including the effects of idling on efficiency. These two variables had a negligible effect on the analysis.

Trucks therefore are an important place to look for energy savings and climate change mitigation in the transportation sector. Among medium- and heavy-trucks, Class 8 trucks are the largest CO 2 emitters and fuel users, consuming two-thirds of all truck fuel, or 1.57 million barrels per day. mpg by 2025 (EIA, 2009).

However, achieving climate change targets will also require the widespread adoption of solutions that are not yet fully developed, whether in logistics or technology. Technologies that improve the fuel efficiency of heavy goods vehicles are a fundamental component of decarbonizing road freight.

Imagine a transportation option that has the fun and flexibility of a bike, is a fraction of the price of a car, can park almost anywhere for free, and produces almost zero climate-changing emissions. What’s more is that electric motorcycles, like other EVs, require far less maintenance than their gas counterparts. Think again.
