UPS Makes World's Largest Order for Hybrid Trucks

UPS Makes World's Largest Order for Hybrid Trucks

"UPS just announced it has ordered 200 hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) - the largest commercial order of such trucks by any company - in addition to another 300 Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles for its U.S. delivery fleet.

The purchase of the 500 additional vehicles means the UPS alternative fuel fleet - already the largest such private fleet in the United States - will grow 30 percent from 1,718 to 2,218 low-carbon vehicles." EcoGeek

I'd like to see every business follow in their footsteps. 2,218 low-carbon vehicles is a great start!
