全球的国际快递服务提供商 DHL 正在美国推出四辆比亚迪 8 级电池电动卡车，以实现其减排和气候保护目标。DHL正在洛杉矶市场试行卡车，正好赶上假日航运旺季。
电动卡车由比亚迪汽车制造，采用长效且安全的电池技术制造，一次充电即可运行一整天。配备舒适的空气驾驶室和空气悬架，卡车具有足够的动力和扭矩，可在82,000 磅的情况下运行。综合重量。DHL 计划在洛杉矶市场使用这些新卡车，在 DHL LAX Gateway和当地服务中心设施之间运送货物。
“这些高效电动卡车的推出是向前迈出的一大步，不仅是朝着实现我们自己的清洁运输目标，也是加州采用零排放车辆的宏伟目标，”DHLExpress US 执行官 Greg Hewitt 说。实施这些电动卡车后，我们每年将防止 300多公吨的温室气体排放到大气中，我们将继续发展和改进我们的清洁取货和送货解决方案。
新卡车增强了公司在美国已经强大的替代燃料汽车 (AFV) 车队，其中包括全电动、混合动力和清洁柴油——以及低功率电动辅助e-Cargo Cycles。
“作为物流和快递服务的全球，DHL 证明了他们对向零排放卡车运输过渡的承诺是认真的，”比亚迪汽车业务发展**总监 JohnGerra 说。“DHL 所做的不仅仅是谈论它；今天，他们实际上正在将比亚迪电动卡车投入商业服务。”
DHL Express 还从多家供应商处订购了 72 辆全电动电池供电货车，这将支持 DHL在加利福尼亚和纽约的取货和送货业务。
2017 年 3 月，DHL Express 的母公司德国邮政敦豪集团 (Deutsche Post DHL Group)设定了到 2050年将其与物流相关的排放量减少到零净值的宏伟目标，从而在物流行业取得了重大的成功。气候保护和可持续性对于物流行业尤为重要。Deutsche Post DHL Group 业务的未来方向，也是其 2025 年战略的核心要素。

Equipped with a comfortable air-ridecab and air suspension, the trucks have more than enough power andtorque to operate at 82,000 lbs. combined weight. DHL plans to usethe new trucks in the Los Angeles market, to haul goods to and fromthe DHL LAX Gateway and local service center facilities.

The new trucks enhance the company’s already robustalternative fuel vehicle (AFV) fleet in the U.S which includesfully electric, hybrid-electric, and clean diesel – in addition tolow-power electric-assist e-Cargo Cycles.
“As a global leader in logistics and express services, DHL hasproved that they’re serious about their commitment to transition tozero-emission trucking,” said John Gerra, Sr. Director of BusinessDevelopment at BYD Motors. “DHL is doing more than just talkingabout it; they’re actually putting BYD electric trucks intocommercial service, today.”
