KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI — Orange EV announced availability of the company’s T-Series pure electric terminal truck. A unique offering, Orange EV’s T-Series is functionally equivalent to current diesel terminal trucks but delivers far greater value. Operators have the power to haul the same load while spending 90% less in fuel and eliminating both diesel fuel and emissions.
Orange EV manufactures pure electric terminal trucks customized to the customer’s operating environment. Starting with an existing truck Orange EV removes all the elements of the diesel power train (e.g. motor, transmission, supporting systems), installs all electric power train and control systems, and reconditions remaining components. Orange EV even takes the chassis down to bare metal before repainting and reassembling to deliver a truck with a new, full life. This approach lowers cost, maximizes recycling and delivers a like new truck drivers already know. Even better, the Orange EV power train and control systems are maintenance free and guaranteed under written warranty.
The T-Series is a financially smart decision. Customers save money from day one. Orange EV’s Chief Technology Officer Kurt Neutgens shared that “For any terminal or yard operator, we dramatically improve business results without any material changes in day to day operations. On top of compelling financial benefits, drivers love this truck. They can do the same job but now feel as alive at the end of the day as when they started. It’s a lot healthier for people and the environment.” Terminal truck operators include a wide range of firms in intermodal, distribution, parcel/package delivery, trucking, retail, manufacturing and more. With Orange EV’s pure electric terminal truck as their vehicle of choice, fleet managers, financial officers and costminded executives can quickly improve performance while reducing maintenance and fuel costs. Leaders in a company’s Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) and Sustainability organizations benefit because the T-Series eliminates emissions while also greatly reducing vibration, noise and other environmental elements which can lead to injury, lost productivity, higher health costs and employee turnover.
Orange EV delivers broad benefits: reducing cost, eliminating emissions, improving health & safety and more. Electric vehicles allow fleet operators to recharge vehicles using electricity drawn from the same power that provides other onsite electricity needs. Using this electricity to fuel vehicles can save more than 90% of the cost of diesel fuel.
Converting to electric rather than natural gas or other fossil fuel saves companies from stranding capital investment in experimental technologies with limited useful lives. Instead Orange EV helps ensure the truck fuel supply will continue to be provided using the cleanest, most efficient and lowest cost fuel sources.
Interested customers should call Orange EV at (866) 688-5223 to test drive the vehicle and request a customized analysis showing emission reduction and cost savings over their current fleet.
