“The continuation of high diesel fuel costs is a major concern for the freight industry and the North American economy as a whole,” said Research Analyst Ryan Carmichael. “By diversifying their fleets to include natural gas, trucks operators can significantly reduce one of their input costs. Commercial vehicle manufacturers have begun to roll out numerous heavy-duty truck options featuring proven natural gas engines that are setting the industry up for significant growth in coming years.”
