Electric Trucks in Modern Logistics

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

Compared to conventional diesel trucks, electric trucks operate significantly more efficiently, as less energy is lost through heat or exhaust emissions. At the same time, no local CO₂ or particulate matter emissions are produced during operation, allowing electric trucks to make an important contribution to reducing environmental impact in the transport sector.

This brings several
advantages for logistics:

  • significantly higher energy efficiency
  • no local CO₂ or particulate matter emissions
  • lower noise levels
  • less maintenance due to fewer moving part

Our Electric Vehicles in Practical Use

At Duwensee, we use several electric truck models to cover different transport requirements – from inner-city deliveries to regional and scheduled long-distance routes. By using modern electric trucks, we are taking on a pioneering role in the field of sustainable logistics.

In total, we operate two Mercedes eActros 600 and two Mercedes eActros 300, which are already firmly integrated into our daily logistics processes.

Our highlight is the Mercedes eActros 600, which was specifically developed for heavy long-distance transport. With a battery capacity of around 621 kWh and a range of up to 600 kilometers, this vehicle is ideally suited for regional long-distance routes and scheduled tours. The durable LFP battery technology does not require nickel or cobalt and is designed for a service life of up to 1.2 million kilometers.

For regional distribution transport, we also rely on the Mercedes eActros 300, which, with a range of up to 400 kilometers, is perfectly suited for daily local transport routes.

All vehicles are charged via our own charging infrastructure at the company site – naturally using 100% green electricity. By integrating charging times, for example overnight or during planned downtime, we ensure a high availability of our vehicles.

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.
