Fitting lighter wheels not only offsets the added weight of the battery, but they help extend battery life and improve range.&nbsp; As technology advances, Alcoa\u00ae Wheels continues to evolve its innovations. It\u2019s a priority to strive to be the resource fleets can count on to bring the industry\u2019s lightest and strongest aluminum wheel solutions to market. And now, things just got even lighter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcoa<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>&nbsp; Wheels has launched the new 22.5\u201d x 8.25\u201d wheel, ULT36x, and the lighter Alcoa<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>&nbsp;22.5\u201d x 14\u201d wheels, 84U61x and 84U64x.

At just 49 lbs., three pounds lighter than its predecessor and made with proprietary MagnaForce<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>&nbsp;alloy, the wheel provides a 12,800 lb. load rating. Weighing significantly less than a comparable steel wheel, fleets will save over 1,400 lbs. when converting from steel dual wheels and tires on an 18-wheeler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It\u2019s about reducing CO2 emissions.<\/strong>&nbsp; \u201cA real-world study of 13 electric trucks delivering freight across North America has found that if all U.S. and Canadian medium- and heavy-duty trucks became electric, about 100 million metric tons of CO2 would be saved from going into the atmosphere.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nacfe.org\/news\/run-on-less-electric-demonstrates-co2-saved-with-electric-trucks\/\">https:\/\/nacfe.org\/news\/run-on-less-electric-demonstrates-co2-saved-with-electric-trucks\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good example is shown in the bus segment where one OEM notes, \u201cWeight needs to be reduced to get maximum battery capacity and passenger loading while respecting the various regulations (local, state, and federal).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It\u2019s also about a bit of everything.<\/strong>&nbsp;North American Council for Freight Efficiency\u2019s (NACFE) Mike Roeth said it perfectly during a podcast on the Alcoa\u00ae Wheels Behind the Wheels. \u201cThe last thing I would say about this transformation is that it takes all of it. It\u2019s not an either\/or. It\u2019s not just lightweighting or just low-rolling resistance tires and fine-tuning your powertrain for the duty cycle. Most all of those things will also help the range of these alternative fuel vehicles and save on the electricity that we need for battery electric trucks. So, efficiency is critical in being successful with these alternative fuel trucks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-alcoa-wheels-aw-podcast podcast-main\"><div class=\"aw-podcast-container container \"><div class=\"podcast-item\"><div class=\"onetrust-placeholder\"><p class=\"onetrust-message text-center vertical-center\"><span class=\"onetrust-unavailable-notice\">This content requires certain cookies to function.
