LoCITY Champion Tevva Motors will develop a vehicle that runs on the food ingredient glycerine, it has announced.

The 7.5-tonne truck will use the sweetener alongside a range-extended battery pack, giving it the ability to travel more than 300 miles without refuelling.

Delivery firm UPS has already trialled the vehicle and placed an order for an additional 15 models.
