Sustainable freight transportation in Mexico<\/strong> is undergoing a major transformation, driven by the global need to cut greenhouse gas emissions and the urgency to modernize logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Companies like Daimler Truck M\u00e9xico<\/strong> are taking the lead in the electrification of heavy-duty trucks, setting the pace for a cleaner freight future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Fernando Mar<\/strong>, Senior Manager of Strategy and Electrification at Daimler Truck M\u00e9xico, transitioning to electric heavy vehicles is a \u201ckey opportunity,\u201d despite infrastructure and upfront cost challenges. Models like the e-Cascadia<\/strong> and e-M2<\/strong> \u2014developed for long-haul and urban operations respectively\u2014 significantly reduce CO\u2082 emissions and mark a turning point for sustainable freight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A report from the International Energy Agency<\/strong> (IEA) indicates that electric vehicles could slash pollutant emissions by up to 70%<\/strong> compared to internal combustion engines, making them essential for addressing climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
