We’re Amped to bring you Amped from the 2022 ACT Expo

As soon as Amped co-host and Fleet Equipment Director of Content Jason Morgan stamped his ticket to the 2022 ACT Expo in Long Beach, Calif., I knew we weren’t going to be able to let him go at it alone. So, I crawled into his backpack and stowed away across the country to join him in witnessing the reveal of all the latest mind-bending decarbonization technologies and sustainability-driving services the trucking world has to offer.

Editor’s Note: During the show, I stumped Jason with a question on Xos‘s new medium-duty and heavy-duty truck availability. Here’s the answer: The new chassis cab product will be hitting production in Q1 of next year, and then the tractor product will hit later in 2023, according to Dakota Semler, co-founder, chairman and CEO of Xos.

This is an audio-only version of our episode with Jason Morgan at ACT Expo 2022. Go ahead, you’re already here – take a listen! But if you’re looking for moving pictures, click here. On this one, you’re going to want to see the video. It’s a lot more fun.

If we're talking about electric vehicles, I'll give it about five minutes before we hit the ol' "range" topic. Typically, the conversation swings into range anxiety territory, and this makes talking about easy ways to extend the driver's range so much fun. Instead of focusing on "range anxiety," we can shift our focus to "range serenity."
