Abstract :
In China, the toll roads will gradually implement the weight fee policy, which increases the toll of freight vehicles and the transportation cost of logistics enterprises, in such a case, logistics enterprises should choose a proper type of vehicles in order to reduce the toll. The paper presents a new model of choosing vehicle type, which compares the toll under different overloading rates and finds the optimal vehicle type based on comprehensive consideration of depreciation and oil cost. Finally, the actual operation of ANNTO is provided to verify the rationality of the model.
