Walmart Makes WAVEs

walmartWalmart has introduced its concept truck to reduce vehicle weight and gain greater efficiency in its transportation fleet.

The Walmart Advanced Vehicle Experience (WAVE) features advanced aerodynamics and is powered by a turbine-powered, range-extending series hybrid powertrain. The trailer is made almost exclusively with carbon fiber, cutting its weight by 4,000 pounds.

In 2005, Wal-Mart set a goal of doubling the efficiency of its truck fleet by 2015 as one of its sustainability milestones.

The company uploaded a video of the truck on YouTube.
