Amazon puts first electric semi trucks into ocean freight operation

Amazon's First Electric Semi Trucks

Amazon has made a groundbreaking move by introducing its first electric semi trucks into ocean freight operations.

The company has added fifty Class 8 electric Volvo semi trucks to its commercial fleet in Southern California.

These trucks will not only haul heavy cargo containers and customer package loads

but will also significantly reduce harmful carbon and diesel particulate emissions.

California's aggressive mandates have played a crucial role in driving this shift towards sustainable transportation.

With this significant step, Amazon is setting a new standard for sustainability in the trucking industry,

and California continues to lead the way in setting world-leading climate goals.
