China produced electric garbage truck

Becoming more and more popular electric cars.

If the earlier manufacturers tried to convert to electric only to passenger cars, lately thinking about it and truck manufacturers.

One of them — the Chinese automaker BYD, which produces trucks and buses. Its new representatives of the company recently showed at the exhibition in California, which is one of their plants. The basis of electric garbage truck took the existing truck, which reduced the price by reducing the number of parts become unnecessary due to transfer to cars on the drive.

The main advantage of the truck — a good opportunity to save not only the purchase of the truck, which is a little cheaper than many peers, but to win on maintenance of these machines. According to the manufacturer, each truck will save approximately $ 13 thousand.

Fully charge the battery, the truck is enough for 120 kilometers, which is very good, but the manufacturer promises to improve performance version, which allowed for the pipeline. Plant BYD has already received a license to sell specialized freight trucking in the US and Canada. For several years he successfully supplies its products to the various services is not going to slow the momentum.

One of the important problems associated with electric trucks, is to modernize the necessary infrastructure and the cost of staff training — all the problems spetsavtohozyaystvo impossible to solve, simply by purchasing new trucks on batteries. Probably, the developers have something to offer on this score, but as long as the Chinese keep silent.
