The CATVs will be designed to replace vehicles called Small Unit Support Vehicles, which have been used since the early 1980s. They will be derived from ST Engineering's Bronco family of vehicles, which have been tested over 1,860 miles in arctic conditions and over 200,000 miles in desert terrain. They have been in operation since 2001. In Oshkosh's commercial division, McNeilus is on track to finish an order for five electric garbage trucks for a client in Boise, Idaho. This is the first time Oshkosh Corp. filled an order for such trucks. "These units will provide valuable insights on opportunities and challenges when BEVs (battery electric vehicles) are used on a daily basis for refuse collection," President and CEO John Pfeifer said. "The development of these products is part of our long-term electrification journey across the company that we believe will generate significant benefits for our customers and the environment."
