An analysis by the organisation Transport & Environment found that the sharp rise in diesel fuel prices, triggered by the war with Iran this year, has made the cost of owning and operating electric trucks lower.
According to the analysis, the rise in diesel prices was directly reflected in hauliers' costs. Owning and operating electric trucks, including the associated costs, is now cheaper than before.
What exactly the analysis found
The analysis states that the rise in diesel fuel prices is linked to the war with Iran. It is this factor that is named as the reason electric trucks have become more advantageous in terms of ownership and operating costs.
The analysis's conclusions concern the European road freight market.
