ROUSH CleanTech attended the launch of the Los Angeles Bureau of Street Services’ Center for Green Innovation. The event took place on February 15 at the Center for Green Innovation’s North Hollywood Yard. The ROUSH CleanTech Ford F-650 battery electric truck was also on hand for the event. It was one of several zero-emissions vehicles StreetsLA introduced, including trucks as well as street sweepers, along with its planned green initiatives.
ROUSH CleanTech’s Ford F-650 battery electric truck fosters healthier communities; it emits no exhaust and zero emissions of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, or hydrocarbons. Further, the truck reduces operating costs for customers while meeting all US Department of Transportation regulations. It complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Specifications (FMVSS) requirements and adheres to the California Zero Emissions Powertrain certification program. Additionally, it has a maximum speed of 65 mph and a 100-mile range.
“ROUSH CleanTech offers congratulations to StreetsLA on the unveiling of its Center for Green Innovation that develops and tests zero- and near-zero emissions equipment for street services,” says ROUSH CleanTech’s director of government affairs Natalia Swalnick, who attended the event. “ROUSH CleanTech’s battery electric medium-duty Ford F-650 truck has been in service with the City of Los Angeles for nearly a year.”
Event speakers included Los Angeles City Councilman Paul Krekorian, US Congressman Tony Cárdenas, and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.
