Electric vehicles seem like the future, but seems like a rocky road. Maybe it’s just not their time yet.

It’s not just about cost or tech. It’s also about timing in the market. Maybe they were too ahead of their time?

It’s not just about having a great idea but also about executing it in a sustainable way.

Converting diesel vehicles to electric is no small feat. Hope they or someone else continues this mission!

Shame the economics didn’t work out for Lunaz. Wonder if anyone else will pick up the mantle?

I’d bet on cost. Retrofitting those big vehicles can’t be cheap, right? Plus, the initial investment in R&D.

Sounds like a niche market with limited demand. Maybe Lunaz was doomed from the start.

What’s next, flying dustbins? Too bad Lunaz couldn’t make it, would’ve loved to see those!

Electrifying bin lorries is the kind of innovative idea we need to tackle urban emissions. Hope this doesn’t discourage other companies.
