73 More Units On The Road
Each quarter, we inch closer to our goal of providing the most durable electric vehicles and software to diesel fleets to help them transition to a more sustainable, cost-effective operation. Today we’re pleased to share that in the second quarter of 2022, we delivered 73 total units to customers across North America. Diesel engine emissions continue to be a major health and environmental hazard not only here in California, but throughout the world, so with our growing footprint, we’re happy to be doing our part to build a more sustainable world.
The work we do at Xos is crucial, and sharing our victories is not only a win for our team who works hard every day to get our trucks on the road, but a victory for all. With that said, we wouldn’t be able to do what we do without our amazing partners who share our mission. Loomis, FedEx Ground Operators, Zeem Solutions, and Merchants Fleet all contribute to the work we do by transitioning their fleet from internal combustion engine to battery-electric with Xos.
