If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Nice to see more industrial vehicles with new-energy options. I suspect batteries will win over other power sources in 99% of ground transportation use cases.

This is so cool if they make it easier to convert. It was a huge project at our mine to convert one of our Komatsu trucks to Hydrogen. Funny thing is the diesel engine originally only powered a generator that then powered the electric motors so they swapped in a hydrogen fuel cell where the diesel engine was. I wonder how the batteries will be changed since the diesel and hydrogen needs like 15-25 minutes to fill up for the day.
