Driving the Future at ACT Expo: Windrose Showcases Its Purpose-Built Electric Class 8 Trucks
At the ACT Expo, Hammer Down host Mike Bush dives deeper into the future of freight with a hands-on look at Windrose Technology’s electric Class 8 trucks. Joined by Joseph Jaramillo, Driver Supervisor at Talon Logistics, Mike takes a test drive to experience the smooth ride, dual digital displays, and unique features—like advanced regen modes and a sunroof—that are rare finds in heavy-duty trucks.
Representing Windrose, Kyle Maki, Director of Customer Success & Operations, and Michael Millar, Marketing Lead, North America, shared how the company, with roots in China and operations in California and Belgium, is rethinking electric trucking especially Class 8 trucks, from the ground up. Their truck tackles weight and range challenges head-on with an 82,000-pound capacity and 420-mile range.
As the logistics industry rapidly evolves, this episode underscores how purpose-built electric trucks are steering the future—and doing it with style and efficiency.
