Autocar launches E3 hydraulic hybrid garbage truck

At Waste Expo 2011, Autocar announced the commercial launch of its E3 hydraulic hybrid chassis cab. The launch of this advanced hybrid follows the successful implementation of a pre-production fleet of E3s that have been hauling away waste in southern Florida since September of 2010.

Autocar claims that the E3 is the "industry's lowest emission, fully functional Class-8 truck available" and says that under normal operating conditions, the E3 consumes 30 to 50 percent less fuel than a conventional garbage truck.
