Chinese EV maker BYD has selected Milea Truck as the distributor of its electric trucks in New York City. Milea will offer the full line of BYD’s electric trucks, including:

• Class 6 and Class 8 Trucks
• Refuse Collection Trucks
• Tandem Axle Day Cabs
• Yard Tractors
• Refrigerated Box Trucks

BYD Director of Business Development John Gerra said, “By partnering with Milea, we can put our zero-emission trucks to work immediately and help provide clean air for New Yorkers.”

Milea Truck Sales President Barry Milea said, “We continue to partner with New York City Departments, not-for-profits, and local businesses to help drive the transition to clean-energy trucks. We are very mindful of the fact that the Bronx and the surrounding boroughs have some of the highest asthma rates in the country. We feel we have a social responsibility to do everything in our power to help fight this by putting more low-emission vehicles on the road, and BYD will be a valuable partner to help us achieve that mission.”
