City joins Chicago as the only ones in North America with an all-electric model.
Motiv Power Systems said Sacramento, CA, has become the second city in North America to order an electric refuse vehicle (ERV).
Sacramento’s Class 8 ERV will use Motiv’s all-electric powertrain, saving the city 6,000 gallons of fuel a year.
It will come equipped with 10 battery packs and be expandable to 12 packs. The ERV is built on a Crane Carrier chassis and Loadmaster body.
