Linfox said it is putting the first of its battery-powered FM prime movers into service on heavy-hauling duties, including food and beverage distribution and integrated rail transport, it was announced this week. The trucks will cover about 500km a day, replacing diesel vehicles on existing freight routes. Initial deployments will operate from Linfox’s Laverton North hub before expanding to Willawong in Queensland and the Adelaide rail freight terminal. The fleet will be supported by 25 chargers across the three sites. Linfox said it will deploy 10 BEVs at Laverton North, six at Adelaide Railhead, and 10 at Willawong. It’s expected that each vehicle will operate between two to three shifts per day, with charging scheduled overnight and between shifts.
