displayed the new garbage truck version of the urban truck, and it might make even more sense for city fleets than the standard version.The garbage truck has generated “strong interest,” at Movin’On, said Yves Provencher, ’s senior manager of business development, but it is not yet available for deliveries.

has already started selling the truck, though, and expects the first dry box delivery models to be delivered in September in North America. Provencher said that the Quebec Liquor Board and the CN train company have both put in orders.The truck’s chassis can fit lithium-ion NMC batteries up to 480 kWh, which

says should offer a range of up to 250 miles. Not bad for a vehicle with a curb weight of 24,600 pounds. The top speed is 65 miles per hour and the direct-drive’s powertrain’s maximum power output is 470 horsepower. The 350-kW electric motor produces 2,507 foot-pounds of torque.
