Electric Trucks

Passenger cars are just the beginning. Electrification is reaching every corner of transport, and some sectors are moving faster than expected:

• Electric trucks — Tesla Semi, Volvo, and Daimler are delivering battery-electric trucks with 300+ km range for regional freight
• Electric buses — Shenzhen, China, electrified its entire 16,000-bus fleet by 2018, and cities worldwide are following
• E-bikes and scooters — the most energy-efficient vehicles on the road, already outselling EVs globally by unit volume
• Electric aviation — small hybrid-electric aircraft such as Heart Aerospace's roughly 30-seat ES-30 target short regional routes, flying short hops on battery power before turboprop engines extend the range
