Welcomed at end of the 19th century as the solution to the severe
problem of horse manure in city streets, electric trucks soon
became the norm for short-haul commercial deliveries. Though
reliable, they were gradually replaced by gasoline-powered trucks
for long-haul deliveries-although a fleet of electric milk trucks
survived in Great Britain into the 1960s. Industrial electric
vehicles never disappeared from factories and ports. During the
past decade, with the availability of the lithium-ion battery, the
electric truck is back on the road for all payloads and all
distances. The fourth in a series covering the history and future
of electric transport, this book chronicles the work of the
innovative engineers who perfected e-trucks large and small.
