Electric powertrains function by receiving electricity from a charge point and storing the electricity in rechargeable batteries that power an onboard electric motor, turning the vehicle’s wheels. Compared to internal combustion vehicles, electric powertrains offer several benefits, including cleaner emissions, improved fuel economy and low-end torque, reduced maintenance and lower total cost of ownership.
As policymakers worldwide shift toward more stringent emissions regulations in the transportation sector, electric powertrains offer operators an intelligent solution to powering their existing and future fleets.
