As all-electric technology steadily expands in the market during the next several years, continuous opportunities also will emerge for other green fuel types.

Here’s a look at what you can expect from some of the biggest names in fleet equipment manufacturing.

Fleet equipment and technology are evolving at an unprecedented pace, with vehicles approaching obsolescence after only a brief time on the road.

Here’s a rundown of what to expect as we roll into 2018.

One of the best ways to reduce exhaust emissions and cut fuel costs obviously is to burn less fuel. Although fuel prices have substantially decreased in the past few years and have largely stabilized for now, beverage fleets remain proactive about reducing their fuel consumption. Between route/load optimization and updates to the latest drivetrain technology, the low-hanging fuel-economy fruit has been thoroughly harvested.
