Big F Transport has ordered 40 Tesla Semi trucks, according to a report from @SawyerMerritt. The order follows a recent demo of a Tesla Semi unit by the company. Drivers liked the smoother operation of the Tesla Semi, @SawyerMerritt reported.
They also appreciated the quieter operation compared to traditional trucks. Shippers stand to benefit from emissions reductions tied to Scope 3 targets through the adoption of these electric vehicles. Regulatory incentives, such as WAIRE points in California, provide additional advantages for companies like Big F Transport.
The total cost of ownership for electric trucking is competitive against diesel-powered counterparts, as highlighted in the report. This competitiveness is especially pronounced when supported by integrated charging and leasing models.
