Being responsible for a substantial portion of freight transport and greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., commercial fleets significantly impact the economy and the environment. This shows how important partnerships can be between OEMs and supplier partners, such as that between Daimler Truck North America and Michelin. During this year’s Michelin Sustainability Summit held at the Sonoma Raceway in California, a panel consisting of executive leadership members from both companies discussed how the partnership is driving sustainability initiatives forward.
For example, Michelin and DTNA’s collaboration on the Super Truck project demonstrates the tangible benefits of low-rolling-resistance tires, which translates to better fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
