■ ■ <br /> rocu remen �me �ne <br /> The following procurement timeline is based on cost-effectiveness, annual budget considerations, and <br /> the remaining useful life of each vehicle in Lexington's existing fleet. The appendix contains a detailed <br /> table that includes specific replacement years and EV model replacements for each vehicle. <br /> In 2024-2025, 8 light-, 11 medium-, and 5 heavy-duty vehicles can be cost-effectively converted to <br /> electric, costing $1 million. These are primarily sedans and pickup trucks—all of which have mature EV <br /> market options that are cheaper and cleaner to operate than their gas/diesel alternatives. Strong state <br /> incentives make immediate purchase possible and recommended. <br /> Between 2026-2028, another 8 light-, 9 medium-, and 5 heavy-duty vehicles can be replaced, costing <br /> $1.4 million. These vehicles were purchased between 2015-2018 and will reach the end of their useful <br /> lifetime (approx. 10 years) during this timeframe. <br /> In 2029-2030, the remaining 55 light-, 18 medium-, and 14 heavy-duty vehicles will be cost- <br /> competitive candidates for EV replacement. The cost of purchasing these vehicles is estimated to be <br /> $7.4 million. Many of the vehicles were purchased in or after 2019, so we suggest keeping these <br /> vehicles through their remaining useful life. This will also allow Lexington to reap the benefits of <br /> projected reductions in battery costs and global competition that is expected to lead to vehicle cost <br /> reduction. Most of the heavy-duty vehicles, including the 5 fire trucks, are cost effective to convert <br /> during those years. The fire trucks require custom fabrication, which accounts for a significant portion <br /> of the cost. <br /> Figure 2.
