As commercial electric vehicles transition from early-adopter pilots to scaled deployments, real-world duty-cycle data is redefining fleet strategy. Paul Gioupis, founder and CEO of Zeem Solutions, is leveraging metrics from more than 350,000 commercial charging sessions to map this shift.

In this episode of The Fleet Lead, FleetOwner’s Josh Fisher sits down with Gioupis at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo to analyze how Tesla Semi field data is challenging traditional range assumptions and shifting the commercial EV total cost of ownership (TCO) equation.
