By 2040, 30% of those applications will reach price parity between BEV and conventional powertrains.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, reports Heavy Duty Trucking, the firm projects that battery-electric vehicles will make up more than half of the Class 4-8 vehicles sold in the U.S. and Canada by 2035.<\/p>\n<p>These gains will be achieved through compelling business cases, as continuing technology improvements and cost reductions make commercial battery-electric vehicles more attractive. Regulations and incentives can help, but ACT says those aren\u2019t the dominant factor in the growth of commercial BEV market share.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverybody\u2019s natural expectation is that low-GVW vehicles would see faster BEV adoption,\u201d said Ann Rundle, who joined ACT Research a little more than a year ago as VP of electrification and autonomy, in an interview. \u201cIn fact, the higher adoption in our model is Class 6-7.\u00a0\u00bb ACT sees Class 4-5 shifting more to gasoline engines than BEV as diesel engine systems start to increase in cost as a result of the 2027 EPA lower NOx regulations.<\/p>\n<p>In comparison, for Class 8 tractors, the TCO will favor diesel over electric until those NOx regulations kick in.<\/p>\n<p>Future trends ACT identifies as key in the growth in EV adoption include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Falling costs for batteries and fuel cells<\/li>\n<li>Rising costs for diesel powertrains to meet upcoming emissions regulations<\/li>\n<li>Improving powertrain efficiency for both internal combustion and EVs<\/li>\n<li>Rising battery-pack energy density<\/li>\n<li>Zero-emissions sales mandates<\/li>\n<li>Bans on internal combustion and\/or diesel engines<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.truckinginfo.com\/10161524\/act-half-of-class-4-8-sales-to-be-bev-by-2035\">story here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Battery-electric Class 4-8 vehicles show positive total cost of ownership compared to conventional vehicles in three-quarters of the applications examined by ACT Research.
