Volvo introduced Australia’s first electric fire truck in Brisbane. The number of electric vehicles in the fleet is expected to increase in the coming years.

Australian emergency response teams are incorporating electric vehicles.

As a result of the agreement between Volvo and Australian public institutions, the first electric fire truck will join the Australian emergency response teams. It is stated that the vehicle is one of the first vehicles to be ordered for the public institution that plans to electrify the entire fleet in the coming years.

According to the statements made, it is aimed that the fire truck will be operational at the beginning of next year. It was among the information that the fire truck, equipped with other equipment such as breathing apparatus in New Zealand before setting off for Australia, had a range of 300 kilometers and worked in low silence.

Officials pointed out that the zero-emission target covered a relatively long period of time and stated that they aim to have an all-electric fleet by 2050.
