RDS Logistics Group Deploys EV Fleet at Toyota Ontario

RDS Logistics Group recently deployed a new electric vehicle fleet. This new fleet will consist of seven electric terminal yard hostlers as part of RDS’ ongoing effort to promote sustainability. The EVs will be used at the Toyota Ontario Parts Center to increase overall performance and eliminate emissions.

The delivery of the EV fleet marks the first electric vehicle deployment at the Ontario facility since the two companies joined forces more than 24 years ago in 1997.

“Adding these emissions-free vehicles to our fleet helps move us closer to achieving the carbon reduction goals laid out in Toyota’s Challenge 2050,” said Santos Bugarin, group manager, parts supply chain operations, Toyota Motor North America. “We’re confident in the technology and capability of these new vehicles and look forward to continuing our longstanding relationship with RDS to achieve our common sustainability goals.”
