Hino Trucks approved for New York alternative fuel vehicle – Voucher Incentive Program

Hino Trucks’ Class 5 195h and 195h-DC diesel electric cab-over has been approved by the New York Truck – Voucher Incentive Program (NYT-VIP).

The NYT-VIP is a partnership between the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT), New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) and CALSTART. $19 million “first come – first served” incentive funding aimed at accelerating the deployment of alternative fuel vehicles and diesel emission control devices for medium- to heavy-duty commercial fleets in New York is available through the partnership.

“New York customers are already seeing the benefits of our 195h diesel electric COE vehicles realizing up to 30% fuel savings over diesel-only products in well matched conditions,” said Glenn Ellis, Hino Trucks vice president of marketing.
