I took a ride in UPS's first all-electric semi truck
UPS has taken delivery of its first all-electric semi-truck and put it into service at its Compton, California facility. Rich DeMuro takes a ride in the new truck, a Freightliner eCascadia, which will be used to move items across shorter distances from warehouse to warehouse.

Good luck
Who actually has a brain 🧠 that actually works?🤔
Just don't see how y'all going to recycle those batteries, when they don't work anymore. Y'all already mining the Congos like crazy,
I wonder How many child slaves had to mine the materials to make those trucks.
I’m gonna be honest that driver who says that that freightliner drives like a Tesla I guarantee you he’s never driven a Tesla truck never
Ok,,,,,,, but it's not TESLA.
With trucks, we all could use a little info on transmissions and torque curves…
😆 🤣 😂 😹 they are not clean ! LOL 😆
Why couldn’t the entire roof of that trailer be converted into about 30 KW worth of solar power to assist the batteries
and you thought shipping rates were,were exorbitant. huh. just wait. no one at ups is taking a salary cut.
250 miles but the heavier the load I guarantee it would be more like 200 miles or even less
That feeder belly just gets me all the time ..can't wait to see the first vid of a ups feeder driver asleep while the truck drives itself 🤣
Except the grid is outdated and California imports most of it's power from other states. The other thing is this "green energy" misinformation campaign that EV's are environmentally friendly, which they are not!
The grid is old fashion.
It’s going to be pretty much useless. 200 mile range.
Sure will miss the sound of Jake brake in the morning ! 😮
I didn't see him shifting the gears. Does it have a gear shift or a CVT transmission?
That facility is off of central near rosecrans tams
Electric crap
need the new 600 mile solid state batteries and fusion to flip the petro industry the bird
More rolling blackouts!! Lol
The weight must be ridiculous. Pavement smasher
thanks UPS YAY GO UPS and THANK YOU KTLA it's all good as long as the power doesnt die out there keep that in mind
But still can’t afford A/C in their delivery trucks. What a joke
Thanks for continues updates👍I'd rather trade the Crypto market as its more profitable. I make an average of $25,000 per week even though I barely trade myself
Lmao i give it a month before it gets tagged
00:25 “no radiator water” as he’s looking @ coolant bottle 😂
Boycott UPS , now your delivers will take longer to receive.
That’s the problem with anything electric you don’t get far.
Key phrase: short distances. It will only move from warehouse to warehouse in the city. It's still a long, long road ahead for the electrification of interstate freight hauling. Politicians make it seem as if the technology was there already.
Newsflash! Your mail will be late…🤔
This amazing
