Ryder System’s fleet of 250 natural gas vehicles has surpassed a milestone of 6 million miles.
Since 2011, when the natural gas truck program began, the vehicles have replaced about 923,000 gallons of diesel fuel with domestically produced natural gas and reduced emissions by more than 2,300 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions, the supply chain management and truck leasing company said.
The fleet consists of 35 liquefied natural gas and 215 compressed natural gas tractors, currently running in 32 operations in California, Arizona and Michigan.
