EUV's in our Environment
All over the world we are currently going down a sustainable path of
repair to our Earth and the immediate surroundings in our every day
lives. What we are collectively learning as we go is that as we
discover various ways to "Go Green" we also are finding added values
within those actions! It is kind of like the "added bonus" that just
happens. In our realm of the "Green Effort" we have learned that
simple inherent results from using small electric work vehicles are
revealing positive attitudes and a more pleasing work atmosphere
resulting in better working conditions. For example, traditionally
Municipal employees use loud and smelly ICEV's, (internal combustion
engine vehicles) for small or simple tasks throughout the day. When
an EUV is introduced it not only has the power to get the job done
but it also alerts the senses to something new that has never been
considered before. Now those employees can actually speak to each
other while they are driving the vehicle without having to strain
their voice to get the verbal message across. The absence of the
constant noise of the motor intermittently over the course of a day
has subconsciously reduced a level of stress or irritation that is
normally always there. After only a few weeks or even days what
happens is that the perception of the work being done no longer has
or has a reduced tone of negativity to doing it resulting in a more
positive feeling about the task at hand. Or even in the case of
those same employees driving the vehicle through a busy Municipal
park as they pass various citizens out for their walk. Something is
missing. The smell of diesel or gasoline is also gone and what the
average consumer does not know is that those fumes from those small
ICEV's can be more harsh on the respiratory system than a car. The
employees have been conditioned to this smell from years of using
the traditional ICEV's so they have possibly overlooked what the
emissions are doing to them on a daily basis. This is real and very
tangible.
In many cases the perception is that EUV's are too weak to do the
job when compared to traditional ICEV's and in some cases this is
correct. But what we know from research is that in most cases this
is incorrect. The reality is that electric power is immediate and
has much less waste in its deliverance vs. an ICEV that wastes
energy just as it creates its torque power - gets to its level of
guts so to speak. With electric power the guts are immediate!
Another common misconception out there is that an EUV cannot do much
on a full charge and in some cases an EUV is not practical for a few
applications. However if you stop and think exactly how many
kilometres or miles a traditional ICEV gets used in a day you will
be surprised to learn that an EUV could very well be useful in your
application and that an ICEV may be on the cut list!
Whether it is a personal
vehicle or a work vehicle it is well worth your time to evaluate if
an EUV is right for your application and we can help you do that.
Just give us a call.
EUV's. It's all we do and we do it well!
