But the problem with this is what happens when you drop and hook. Logistics will be a bitch. Because you gonna have to route trucks compatible with the trailer.
In the meantime you got product wating
Probably wouldn’t be used in those situations.
When O worked for Coca Cola they bought hybrid trucks for the city routes. Combination of tax incentives and the idea they would save fuel making their way around downtown Austin.
It was a bit of a disaster because they had early DPF systems that were constantly stopping up due to lack of highway driving to burn them out. But outside of the mechanical issues they would have been more efficient to operate. With a simple exhaust system it may have been a worthwhile investment. Not sure what happened long term as far as battery maintenance though. I left while they were still trying to deal with the exhaust issues. These were first Gen trucks basically with all the teething problems that go with it.
