The Pierce Volterra electric fire truck brings electric vehicle technology to the fire service while maintaining the performance and capabilities departments expect from their apparatus.
The Pierce Volterra platform gives departments the benefits of electric operation while maintaining the flexibility needed for emergency response. Crews can drive and operate the pump using electric power, reducing emissions, fuel use and apparatus noise during everyday operations.
Every department’s response environment is different. Call volume, travel distances, station infrastructure and operational demands all factor into whether electric apparatus is the right fit.
Ten-8 can help departments begin that conversation and explore how Volterra may fit into their current and future fleet strategy.

The Pierce Volterra platform gives departments the benefits of electric operation while maintaining the flexibility needed for emergency response. Crews can drive and operate the pump using electric power, reducing emissions, fuel use and apparatus noise during everyday operations.
For longer responses and extended incidents, Volterra’s parallel-electric design provides an additional power source to keep the apparatus operating when needed. The result is a practical approach to electrification designed around the realities of fire service operations.
