Garbage trucks may soon be much quieter.
Volvo introduced a new electric garbage truck design this week called the Volvo FE Electric. The truck is built to optimize efficiency and quietly hauling away trash.
The lithium-ion powered truck has a 125-mile range and is envisioned as the perfect trash compacting truck with no emissions. It's specifically built for a quieter ride with fewer vibrations for garbage workers riding along — and for residents who can typically hear large garbage trucks rattling through the neighborhood.
