The environmental impact of an electric truck is very low when the truck is in use, but slightly higher during production. However, because trucks have high usage rates, it is possible to compensate for this quickly. The breakeven of an electric truck in terms of climate impact can be achieved within less than a year when using electricity from renewable sources or from nuclear power. Electric drivelines are much more energy efficient than diesel drivelines and produce no tailpipe emissions. They have the lowest environmental impact when they use electricity from renewable sources.
