I’d argue that garbage trucks, snow plows and fire engines are candidates for EVs. They are large and heavy with plenty of space for batteries. Typically used in predefined routes, traveling less than 100 miles per day.

I would gladly vote for a bond to fund electric trash trucks if that resulted in quieter weekly trash service.

More than half of the garbage trucks I see in Copenhagen are EVs. The first was introduced in 2022.

I haven't seen a fire truck EV, but those exist in other cities.

		And they are so much nicer. Way less noise and pollution and much better maneuverability on narrow streets or on slippery roads in winter.
