yoyo
'yoyo', PaperlinX's complete closed loop paper delivery, recovery and recycling service, launched its first Smith electric delivery truck in July 2008.
The Smith Newton will save yoyo four tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.
Calculated over the minimum five-year life of the vehicle, this will save 20 tonnes of CO2; the equivalent to driving a comparable diesel truck around the earth's circumference more than three times.
“With zero emissions and zero exhaust air pollutants, the electric truck is a valuable extension to our service in London and we hope to add more vehicles to the fleet in the future.
”Tim Forster, Director, Office Papers at PaperlinX
The Smith Newton truck used by yoyo is the largest and most powerful road-going zero emission truck in the world. It also provides additional environmental features such as fully recyclable, ultra light body panels.
