Frito-Lay California All-electric Delivery Truck Fleet Expansion

planned

PepsiCo Frito-Lay North America announced the expansion of its California electric truck fleet to include 105 all-electric delivery trucks by the end of 2012, making it the largest deployment in any state. The electric trucks reduce fuel consumption, noise pollution, and CO2 emissions compared to traditional delivery trucks. The trucks operate from distribution centers throughout California including Alameda, City of Industry, La Mirada, Manteca, San Diego, San Jose, and Torrance. The project is supported by grants and funding from the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee, California Energy Commission, and California Air Resources Board.
