Falkenklev Logistik from Sweden is converting its city traffic in Malmö to electric drive with the new FUSO eCanter. With a total of six new FUSO eCanter 9C18e 8.55t, the company will support DHL operations on the southern coast of Sweden. Falkenklev Logistik is a long-standing partner of DHL. 

The compact 8.55-tonne vehicles have a wheelbase of 4,750 mm and a maximum body length of 7.2 m, offering up to 15 pallet spaces. “They fill the gap between vans and heavy-duty delivery trucks, and are exactly what we were looking for to electrify our daily deliveries for DHL in the center of Malmö,” commented Victor Falkenklev, CEO of Falkenklev Logistik AB.

Six FUSO eCanter with an additional step

The FUSO eCanter vehicles located in Sweden are equipped with the size M-battery pack, which consists of two batteries and promises a range of up to 140 km. For use in Malmö, the general importer Veho Bil Sverige AB, which has been represented in the Malmö region since the beginning of 2024, equipped the new eCanter with an additional step at the entrance at the customer’s request. The additional step is intended to give drivers a familiar feeling when they are switching from larger trucks to the eCanter and are used to entry steps. Veho also equipped the vehicles with a roof spoiler and side wind deflectors.
