Fleet EV Conversions: Cut Emissions & Costs
Fleet managers, let’s be real—your fuel costs are through the roof, and your vehicles are pumping out emissions like it’s 1999. Sticking with gas and diesel today isn’t just costly, it’s silly.
But here’s the good news: there’s a better way. A way to cut costs, slash emissions, and future-proof your fleet—all in one move.
The EV fleet conversion way.
Switching to electric isn’t just about sustainability brownie points. It’s a smart financial decision, with lower fuel costs, minimal maintenance, and massive incentives making the switch one of the best investments you can make right now.
Hypothetical Fleets: EV Fleet Conversion Savings
To see the power of EV conversions, let’s break it down with some real numbers in sample scenarios.
1. Urban Delivery Fleet:
Fleet Composition | 50 diesel-powered delivery trucks |
Annual Mileage per Vehicle | 20,000 miles |
Fuel Efficiency (GGEs per year) | 1,765 GGEs (Source: AFDC) |
CO₂ Emissions per Gallon of Diesel | 10,180 grams |
Annual CO₂ Emissions per Vehicle | 17.97 metric tons |
Total Fleet Annual CO₂ Emissions | 898 metric tons |
Impact of Conversion:
By converting this fleet to electric, the company could eliminate nearly 900 metric tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
2. Public Transit Fleet:
Fleet Composition | 20 diesel-powered transit buses |
Annual Mileage per Vehicle | 50,000 miles |
Fuel Efficiency (GGEs per year) | 9,605 GGEs (Source: AFDC) |
CO₂ Emissions per Gallon of Diesel | 10,180 grams |
Annual CO₂ Emissions per Vehicle | 97.78 metric tons |
Total Fleet Annual CO₂ Emissions | 1,956 metric tons |
Impact of Conversion:
Going electric for this transit fleet would eliminate nearly 2,000 metric tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
3. Corporate Sedan Fleet:
Fleet Composition | 100 gasoline-powered sedans |
Annual Mileage per Vehicle | 15,000 miles |
Fuel Efficiency (GGEs per year) | 433 GGEs (Source: AFDC) |
CO₂ Emissions per Gallon of Diesel | 8,887 grams |
Annual CO₂ Emissions per Vehicle | 3.85 metric tons |
Total Fleet Annual CO₂ Emissions | 385 metric tons |
Impact of Conversion:
Switching to electric sedans would cut over 385 metric tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
Financial Considerations of Electric Vehicle Conversion Kits:
Fuel Savings: Electricity generally costs significantly less per mile compared to diesel or gasoline. For instance, a diesel school bus traveling 12,000 miles annually at 8.5 mpg would consume about 1,410 gallons of diesel. At $3.07 per gallon, that’s approximately $4,328.70 per bus per year. Electric buses can slash this cost.
Maintenance Savings: EVs have fewer moving parts, leading to lower maintenance costs. A study comparing maintenance costs found that alternative fuel vehicles, such as those powered by liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), had maintenance costs 23% lower than their diesel counterparts.

Switching to electric isn’t just a way to pat yourself on the back for your environmental acumen—it’s an operational upgrade for your fleet.
Cut Costs: Lower fuel and maintenance costs deliver significant savings year over year.
Reduce Emissions: Make a real, tangible impact on climate change by eliminating tailpipe emissions.
Future-Proof Your Operations: Stay ahead of regulations and position your fleet as a leader.
