Peterbilt announced the delivery of the first Model 220EV to Frito-Lay. Six battery electric Model 220EV medium-duty trucks will be used by PepsiCo’s Frito-Lay division as part of its Modesto, California, Zero- and Near Zero-Emission Freight Facility Project (ZANZEFF).
The zero-emission 220EV is powered by two battery packs with a total capacity of 148 kWh and a Meritor Blue-Horizon two-speed drive eAxle.
It features a range of more than 100 miles and a recharge time of one hour, making it ideal for local pick-up and delivery options. The model 220EV was introduced at CES in January 2019, and now joins the Models 579EV and 520EV in customer field trials.
