Electric Trucks in Modern Logistics

An electric truck is a fully electric-powered vehicle that operates without the use of fossil fuels. Instead of conventional diesel engine, it is powered by high-performance batteries and advanced electric motors. This modern drive technology enables highly efficient and environmentally responsible transport solutions.

Compared to traditional diesel trucks, electric vehicles are significantly more efficient, as far less energy is lost through heat or exhaust. At the same time, they produce zero local CO₂ and particulate emissions during operation, making them a key contributor to reducing environmental impact within the transport sector.

This offers a number of clear advantages for logistics operations:

  • Significantly higher energy efficiency
  • Zero local CO₂ particulate emissions
  • Reduced noise levels, particularly in urban environments
  • Lower maintenance requirements due to fewer moving parts

Our Electric Vehicles in Daily Operation

At Duwensee, we operate a range of electric truck models to meet diverse transport requirements – from urban deliveries to regional distribution and scheduled long-haul routes. By deploying state-of-the-art electric vehicles, we are playing a pioneering role in sustainable logistics.

Our fleet currently includes two Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 units and two Mercedes-Benz eActros 300 units, all of which are fully integrated into our day-to-day operations.

A key highlight is the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600, specifically designed for heavy long-haul transport. With a battery capacity of approximately 621 kWh and a range of up to 600 km, it is ideally suited for regional long-distance routes and scheduled services. Its durable LFP battery technology eliminates the need for nickel and cobalt and is engineered for a service life of up to 1.2 million kilometres.

For regional distribution, we also rely on the Mercedes-Benz eActros 300, which offers a range of up to 400 km and is perfectly suited for daily local transport operations.

All vehicles are charged via our own on-site charging infrastructure – powered entirely by 100% renewable electricity. By intelligently integrating charging times, such as overnight or during scheduled downtime, we ensure maximum vehicle availability.

Overview of Our Electric Fleet
  • Modern electric trucks for regional distribution and scheduled long-haul transport
  • Fleet of 2 × Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 and 2 × Mercedes-Benz eActros 300
  • Dedicated fleet built around sustainable transport technology
  • Company-owned fast-charging infrastructure with high charging capacity
  • Electric fleet powered by 100% renewable electricity
  • Seamless integration into existing logistics and transport processes

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions about Electric Trucks
How far can an electric truck travel?
Depending on the model, the range can reach up to 600 kilometers under optimal conditions. This makes electric trucks particularly well-suited for local transport, regional shipments, and many daily routes, as well as for long-haul transport on fixed routes.
What types of transport are electric trucks suitable for?
Electric trucks are particularly well-suited for inner-city deliveries, regional transport, and fixed routes in both local and long-distance transport. Thanks to their quiet operation, they are also ideal for deliveries in residential areas or overnight deliveries.
Is the payload lower for electric trucks?
For modern electric trucks such as the Mercedes eActros 600, the payload largely corresponds to that of a comparable diesel truck, making them suitable for many traditional transport tasks as well.
Are electric trucks as reliable as diesel trucks?
Yes. Modern electric trucks are specifically developed for professional logistics operations and offer high reliability in daily use. In addition, the electric drivetrain contains fewer moving parts, which can reduce maintenance requirements.
What advantages do electric trucks offer for companies?
Companies benefit from emission-free transport, an improved CO₂ footprint, and a more sustainable supply chain. This can also play an important role in ESG or sustainability reporting.
Can electric trucks also be used for long-distance transport?

Currently, electric trucks are primarily used for local and regional transport. However, thanks to modern vehicle technology and the ongoing expansion of the charging infrastructure, they are increasingly capable of covering longer distances.

Even today, electric trucks can be reliably deployed for long-haul transport on fixed routes. With predictable routes and coordinated charging times, shipments can be carried out efficiently and sustainably.
