Check out the FAQ section at volvotrucks.com to learn more about CO₂ footprints The more an electric truck is used, the greater the benefit Towards zero emissions. Electric transport solutions can reduce your CO₂ footprint significantly – both in terms of everyday use, and throughout the entire lifecycle. The CO₂ emissions generated during the pro- duction of a Volvo electric truck are more than those generated by the production of one with a combustion engine. But once the electric truck is in use, its tank-to-wheel CO₂ emissions drop as low as zero when using renewable energy sources. When this is done over its entire lifecycle, the electric truck wins by a broad margin. And it gets even better when a sustainable end-of-life process has been implemented for the batteries.
