In this episode, we talk to Marc Bédard, CEO and Founder of The Lion Electric Co. about his company’s experience helping customers navigate the transition to electrification.
Three insights to take away:
- Although the acquisition cost of an electric vehicle may be higher than a comparable gas or diesel model, the total cost of ownership is what really matters
- Electric vehicles are becoming more popular with a new generation of drivers and maintenance people, helping operators attract and retain people
- The Lion Electric Co. from its inception decided that their products will be purpose-built for electric, ensuring all the components are integrated and optimized. This includes building their own battery packs and investing in their own battery factory
