The Volvo VNR Electric, Volvo Trucks North America’s first commercially available battery-electric Class 8 vehicle, will be deployed on local logistics routes servicing the company’s New River Valley truck assembly operations in Dublin, Va., by the end of 2021, the company announced.
Working with local suppliers and carriers, VTNA will deploy three 6X2 VNR Electric vehicles to transport inbound parts and components daily to the plant, where every Volvo truck is assembled in North America, according to the Greensboro, N.C.-based company.
