Terminal Tractor Sales on 9 April, 2012

The new line of Capacitys is targeted to meet the demand for alternative-fueled vehicles in port communities that are challenged to comply with stricter emissions rules. This is a particularly vital issue for ports operating in counties that are designated as “non-attainment” or “maintenance” areas under the National Ambient Air Quality Standards, which the EPA uses to enforce emissions reductions.

Allison Transmission, CleanFual, Capacity, Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation, GM and Powertrain Integration are all project stakeholders.
