Focus On Mack Electric LR

- Greenhouse gas emissions reduction was the primary driver in the development of the North America's first fully electric full-size refuse collection truck, but the Mack LR Electric brings other benefits too. Noise reduction, lower maintenance costs, and it will even plow snow on its New York City collection routes. The New York City Department of Sanitation took delivery of the first LR Electric in early 2020 and it's now in field testing. Equipment Editor Jim Park was in Allentown Pennsylvania for the launch. Here's his report.
If the batts are getting low on juice on the back end of the day’s run I don’t think the refuse is gonna pack all that well .. 😏
Very cool. Do you know what type of transmission was being used? Can Mack still use Allison transmission on EV refuse trucks?
Some form of a two-speed transmission.
I bet torque is too high for the Allison transmission ratio - plus there is no need for that much gear. This kind of truck have usually 8 to 16 gears to keep engine rpm confined to the max torque range, usually 900 to 1500 rpm
The future is electric.
Why can't Mack fix that squeaking underneath the cab?? Unbelievable.
It’s a cabover that’s why lol. Either choose dampers with comfort or solid body shock shattering your spine
Every Mack lr does this when the cab hydraulic lock is not fully engaged would have taken two seconds to fix sloppy presentation in my eyes
It's great they are moving to EV trucks, but no one is talking about what will happen to these vehicles when they get to their end of life. EV cars/trucks/ etc are just as bad for our environment.
EVs aren't nearly as bad for the environment, and the batteries (though sadly still utilizing cobalt) are recyclable. Additionally, batteries can last millions of miles and need far less maintenance. It's not perfect for sure but it's a hell of a lot better than petroleum-based fuels.
@@ultimatehalomuffinpony3355 It depends on what materials is in the battery, most manufacturers tend to use non recyclable material to save money
@@Christophertruck Precisely why I pointed out the use of cobalt.
@@ultimatehalomuffinpony3355 recyclable isn’t the right word for getting the aluminum extracted and the rest getting landfilled.
@@THESLlCK Lithium-Ion batteries (among others) are fully recyclable, it's not just the aluminum that can get reused, as I understand it.
...no lithium batteries!!! come on!!!...one of the worst batteries in the world...they have aplenty of options: mechanical batteries, fuel cells, turbine generators, Ni-Fe batteries, carbon, etc, etc
hate it
