Denis Marcotte, Groupe Morneau's Director of Technical Services, comments: “A perfect technology for our electrification program.
Our yard tractors are a prime example of electric vehicles seamlessly integrated into our operations. They provide much quieter performance compared to our standard internal combustion engine tractors, thanks to a simple and reliable electric propulsion system. Additionally, maintenance costs and time are reduced, while offering a smoother and more comfortable experience for our drivers.”.
