based on deutsche post dhl group’s target to reduce all logistics-related emissions to net zero by 2050, dhl freight is increasingly investing in alternative drives for short- and long-distance transportation. lng-fueled trucks offer 15% higher fuel efficiency compared to traditional diesel-powered engines and have a reach of 1500 kilometers. this represents an immediate cost saving. they also emit 99% less particulate matter and up to 70% less nitrogen oxide (nox) emissions than the levels required by the current euro vi diesel norms. the greatly reduced noise levels emitted by the lng-powered engines provide an additional benefit when travel includes inner-city areas and around-the-clock transportation.
