Captured here is brand new Engine 1 of the Vancouver Fire & Rescue Services (VFRS), which was put into service on December 5th, 2023. Engine 1 is a Rosenbauer RTX electric fire truck, making it the first-ever electric fire engine in Canada, and one of the first in all of North America!
The RTX is a state-of-the-art fire truck with many innovative and useful features. It can drive for about 100 kilometers on a single electric charge and can pump water for about two hours. It has all-wheel-drive and an adjustable suspension, which can make it easier for firefighters to enter and exit the vehicle, or adapt it to drive off-road. The truck also has enhanced maneuverability as all four wheels can turn (all-wheel-steering, countersteering, and crab steering). Apart from this, it saves fuel costs and minimizes firefighter exposure to toxic fumes that regular fire trucks produce.
Engine 1 now serves the Strathcona, Chinatown, and Downtown Eastside neighborhoods of the city, running out of Fire Hall No. 1.
