Chinese truck maker SANY will soon launch its new e263 4×2 electric truck in the European market. That’s quite a significant news, as SANY is a primary brand in China as for heavy-duty vehicles (not only trucks, let’s say). Deliveries of the SANY e263 start in Q1 2026 and various rigid variants will be available by the end of 2026.

SANY has also announced they will be aupported by Putzmeister and service network of Alltrucks in Europe, this “ensuring seamless operations for European logistics fleets”. The electric vehicle features a 636 kWh LFP battery on an 800V platform achieving over 500 km range with 42t and maximized payload thanks to only 10,9t empty vehicle weight. In addition to 400kW CCS charging the SANY e263 will later also enable megawatt charging (MCS). Finally, the electric motors are expected to generate a continuous output of 420 kW as well as a peak output of 730 kW.

SANY electric trucks headed to Europe

Also, in terms of safety, SANY states that several installed safety assistance systems currently go beyond the legal requirements of GSR2. Talking about assistance, SANY eTrucks together with Alltrucks Truck and Trailer Service will offer a comprehensive service network with its 700+ service workshops all over Europe and a German based spare parts storage center managed by Putzmeister. 24/7 roadside assistance, OTA & telematic diagnosis and full-service contracts ranging from 6 to 10 years will minimize unplanned workshop visits. 

“This launch builds on the proven success of SANY’s 8×4 408P (Gen1) and e435 (Gen2) electric chassis, which is already setting new standards in European heavy-duty construction segment with its advanced technology, impressive TCO, and reliability. By offering both the new 4×2 e263 and established 8×4 e435 electric models, SANY eTrucks supported by Putzmeister provides European fleet operators with tailored solutions for a wide variety of applications”, commented Kevin Eichele, Head of Product and Business Development SANY eTrucks Europe.
