KANSAS CITY, MO – July 30, 2015 – Looking for a better truck?  Fleet Managers can buy for less and operate for less the next generation of heavy duty vehicles:  Orange EV’s T-Series pure electric terminal truck.  The T-Series does the same job better and can cost half the price of a new Ottawa or Capacity diesel truck.  Operators then also save up to 90% in fuel, maintenance and more.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership – Now Being Understood by Fleet Managers

“The daily fuel and maintenance costs of diesel trucks are well known.  The true total cost however is just now being more fully understood by fleet operators.” said Mike Saxton, Orange EV’s Chief Commercial Officer.  The T-Series power train is about 90% energy efficient.  Diesel systems leak energy at around 20% efficiency.  “When customers see the savings in going electric they’re very interested.   After they drive it, they never want to use a diesel again.”  Fleet Managers appreciate the simplicity of T-Series operations and maintenance.  They now can also justify buying based on the fuller range of benefits like: healthier and more alerts drivers, simplified fuel management (i.e. storage & shrinkage, distribution, incident / hazmat management), smoother & quieter truck operations and of course…zero emission.
