The humble garbage truck will be the next to be electrified—which, if nothing else, will eliminate the unpleasant noise from huge diesel trucks that often wake people up in the wee hours of the morning......................
The electric garbage truck is a collaboration between Chinese automaker BYD and U.S. firm Wayne Engineering, which specializes in garbage-truck bodies.
The 3.9-ton truck has a driving range of 100 miles, according to BYD, and takes 2.5 hours to recharge.
