On July 21, Ryder System, Inc. announced the launch of a new alternative fuels website to help customers and fleet owners better understand how they can reduce transportation costs, while meeting sustainability objectives.

With just a few clicks, businesses can get all the information they need about the financial, environmental, and long-term advantages of natural gas, hybrid, and electric vehicle technologies. In addition to explaining the various fleet technologies, the site provides one-stop access to the latest news on Ryder alternative fuel products, programs, and initiatives.

"This new online resource is part of Ryder's ongoing effort to drive innovation across the industry and extend our leadership in alternative fuels," said John Diez, Senior Vice President of Asset Management, Fleet Management Solutions for Ryder.

As the cost of diesel fuel continues to rise and fluctuate, many businesses are looking for more affordable and predictable price solutions. Alternative fuel technologies, such as natural gas, electric, and hybrid vehicle options, can deliver this kind of cost advantage, while helping companies reduce their vehicle-generated emissions. Regardless of fleet size or delivery application, Ryder can help businesses determine the best alternative fuel solutions to meet their needs. 

"We continue to see substantial interest in the marketplace for natural gas vehicles and other alternative fuel technologies," continues Mr. Diez. "Ryder's new alternative fuels website helps to make all of our knowledge, expertise, and experience easily accessible to fleet managers who want to learn more about the benefits of new, cleaner and more efficient commercial vehicle technologies."
