Canada’s federal government recently announced incentives of up to $100,000 per truck for purchasing medium-duty electric trucks – bringing the price of electric trucks close to that of diesel-powered trucks.
The Incentives for Medium Duty Zero-Emission Vehicles Program will offer $100,000 per leased or purchased Class 6 & 7 trucks.
Individual businesses and government fleets will be eligible for up to 10 incentives or a maximum of $1 million per calendar year, beginning July 11, 2022. The federal funding would be on top of provincial or territorial incentives.
“Helping Canadian businesses and communities make the switch to a zero-emission vehicle is win-win-win: it keeps our air clean, helps people save money on fuel, all while positioning Canada as a leader on building and powering these vehicles,” Transport Minister Omar Alghabra said in a related press release.
See a recent video comparison that highlights the International MV in both electric and diesel options.
Maxim Truck & Trailer has two medium-duty International MV demo trucks being tested. We are currently accepting orders for International MVs so with the substantial incentives recently announced, now is a great time to add one or more electric trucks to your fleet to compare with your diesel trucks.
