Will heavy trucks go electric in North America? <\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=\u00a0\u00bb.vc_custom_1658541969468{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00a0\u00bb]Over the last decade, a variety of support policies for electric vehicles were enforced to help stimulate a <\/span>major expansion of electric car models<\/span><\/a>, and the results are tangible. T<\/span>he U.S., market for electric cars is expected to continue increasing and represent 15% of the global car market in 2025, while this number is even higher in Europe.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As for heavy trucks,\u00a0 part of Biden\u2019s<\/span> Actions to Accelerate\u00a0 Clean Transit\u00a0 Buses, School Buses, and Trucks<\/span><\/a> is to fund trucks powered by batteries and hydrogen.\u00a0 \u201cThe Department of Energy is partnering with industry to expand zero-emission truck technology through its SuperTruck 3 Program, with the latest round of $127 million in funding focused for the first time on reducing costs and improving durability in hydrogen and battery electric trucks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, the U.S. Department of Energy released a <\/span>study <\/span><\/a>showing that by 2030 nearly half of medium- and heavy-duty trucks will be cheaper to buy, operate, and maintain as zero-emissions vehicles than traditional diesel-powered combustion engine vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n

All efforts have been deployed, However, commercial heavy-duty trucks are considered to be the sector that is most difficult to electrify because duty cycles are more sensitive to range and payload weight needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

The big challenge: The Electric Trucks Driving Rage\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The driving range is one of the biggest concerns for car shoppers considering an electric vehicle. There is even something called\u00a0 \u201crange anxiety\u201d: Consumers fear that they will run out of electricity halfway and get stranded.\u00a0 But how grounded is the driving range concern?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How many miles do Truck Drivers Drive a Day? The number varies depending on traffic, road conditions, bathroom breaks, and weather, among other factors. The Federal Highway Administration estimates that long-distance trucks log over 100,000 miles each year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Drivers are expected to drive between 285 and 430 miles per day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is the current Driving Range of\u00a0 Electric Heavy Trucks? Who currently makes heavy-duty electric trucks?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

We present a list of electric trucks that are currently in production or expected to be produced and have a driving range of at least 230 miles.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
