In 2019, medium-duty trucks represented some 86.7 percent of the total North American electric truck fleet, compared to only 80 heavy-duty trucks. This was in part due to the inaccessibility of charging infrastructures faced by heavy-duty electric trucks, which hauled goods over long distances. By 2026, the medium-duty electric truck segment is projected to reach over 8,200 units, compared to some 1,500 heavy-duty commercial vehicles. The United States was the country recording the largest electric truck fleet in the region.
