The company plans to add 185 hybrid electric trucks and is also launching a new vehicle that is much larger than those in its existing fleet.<\/h3>\n<p>The majority of the hybrid vehicles currently in its fleet are 12-bay box trucks with a 33,000 gross vehicle weight. With a gross combination vehicle weight of 55,000, the new hybrid electric tractors are comparable to standard bulk delivery trucks used by the company. Coca-Cola Enterprises said that the jumbo hybrids use 30 percent less fuel and produce about 30 percent fewer emissions than standard tractors. The tractors were developed by the Eaton Corporation, Kenworth Truck Company and Cummins Engine Company.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Coca-Cola commenced development of its green fleet in 2001, with its first order in 2007 for 20 hybrids with Eaton power systems. By the end of last year the firm had 142 vehicles, which were put to work in Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Toronto, Vancouver and Washington, DC.<\/p>\n<p>Under the expansion plan, large new hybrid tractors will roll out in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Portland, San Francisco, Seattle, Tampa, Toronto, Vancouver and Washington, DC. New 12-bay trucks are to be sent to Albuquerque, Columbus, Jacksonville, Las Vegas and Montreal. Coca Cola Enterprises has taken a bold, but necessary step towards sustainability and clean technology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Photo credit:<\/strong> Coca Cola Enterprises<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coca-Cola Enterprises, the largest bottler of Coca Cola beverages will more than double the size of its hybrid electric delivery fleet to about 327 green truck on U.S. and Canadian roads.
