"Fifty million miles. Eighty million kilometers. Two thousand laps around Carl
Sagan’s pale blue dot. However you measure it, there’s no denying it: Volvo
Trucks have driven a whole lot of battery-electric miles!
Since Volvo Trucks began delivering its first generation of all-electric semi
trucks to customers in 2019, the trucks have dramatically reduced fleets’
harmful carbon emissions, reduced their operating costs, and improved the
working environment for drivers with smoother, quieter, and cleaner operation.
How much cleaner? Volvo claims that covering the same fifty million distance
with equivalent diesel-powered trucks would have consumed more than 25 million
liters of diesel fuel and more than 68,000 tons of carbon dioxide."
