CAA-Quebec's President and CEO Marie-Soleil Tremblay stated, "Roadside assistance has always been in CAA-Quebec's DNA, and it goes without saying that we are taking the lead in electric towing. We have a responsibility to set an example and take a leadership role in protecting the environment." This highlights their commitment not just to roadside assistance but also to pioneering greener alternatives in the industry.
The introduction of electric vehicles like the Lion5 represents a significant shift in the landscape of roadside assistance, especially given that the routes are typically local, making battery range concerns less pressing. This scenario is ideal for the implementation of electric tow trucks.
With CAA-Quebec having successfully utilized EVs from Ford and Hyundai over the years, the transition to electric tow trucks seems seamless. Their existing experience with EV infrastructure supports the broader movement towards electrification within vehicle fleets, ensuring lower fuel and maintenance costs.
As pointed out by Electrek's Jo Borrás, the Lion5 electric tow truck is not only innovative but also locally manufactured in Quebec, representing a strong local connection for communities looking to embrace sustainable transportation solutions.
