Nevertheless, we have noticed the progression of battery technology in recent years. This proposal seeks to analysis the practicability of replacing the existing traditional gasoline trucks with hybrid energy trucks. In light of the fact that the fuel expense takes up around fifty-percent of the total cost of our delivery service.
