Kalmar Ottawa’s third generation of electric terminal trucks or yard trucks will help improve the eco-efficiency of your operations while maintaining the highest levels of productivity and safety. With a range of modular battery options and charging solutions, we can work with you to design a solution that will deliver for your yard, terminal or distribution centre.
Eco efficiency built in
Your electric terminal tractor will produce zero carbon emission at source, making them cleaner and safer to operate in your yard, terminal or distribution centre. Getting an electrically powered yard truck is only the start of your eco-efficient journey. One that we will be with you every step of the way.
Three big benefits
There are three distinct differences and many small ones to our new generation of electric terminal tractors for you to benefit from:
Charge times reduced. Our first big change has been to incorporate a DC FastChargeTM System, which has allowed us to decrease our charge time significantly.
Electric motor. The second is that we have eliminated the transmission from the driveline, moving to a direct drive solution where the electric motor is powering the drive axle, reducing the complexity of the driveline.
Ability to operate in extreme temperatures. Thirdly, we have included an Active Thermal Management System, which will allow your electric terminal tractor to operate optimally at full power in extreme temperatures. The system keeps your core battery temperature between 77-86˚F for optimal performance even when the temperature outside gets down to -22˚F or up to 122˚F.
