Mercedes’ Long-Haul Electric Semi Is Here

Mercedes-Benz reveals production version of eActros 600 semi, offering a range of 310 miles on a single charge thanks to a 600-kWh battery.The eActros 600, joining existing electric truck offerings from Mercedes-Benz, is the company's first to be aimed at long-haul routes as opposed to medium-duty trucks for daily routes.

'Around 60% of long-distance journeys of Mercedes-Benz Trucks customers in Europe are shorter than 500 kilometers anyway, which means charging infrastructure at the depot and at loading and unloading points is sufficient in such cases,' the truck maker points out. With a payload of about 22 tonnes, and a gross combination weight of 44 tonnes, the eActros will indeed aim to replace diesel models that have formed the backbone of Europe's long-haul truck fleet for decades.
