SuperPanther expands its European service network as eTopas 600 operations grow
Chinese electric truck manufacturer SuperPanther has signed a service agreement with Germany's Fahrzeugtechnik Rieger, taking another step towards developing its European after-sales network. The agreement builds on the company's partnership with Alltrucks, as the eTopas 600 enters commercial operations across several European markets.
SuperPanther is continuing to strengthen its European operations, this time focusing on after-sales services. The Chinese electric truck manufacturer has announced a new service agreement with Fahrzeugtechnik Rieger GmbH, a German commercial vehicle service specialist based in Euskirchen, near Cologne.
The agreement represents another step in the implementation of the strategic partnership signed with Alltrucks in September 2025, intended to provide SuperPanther customers with access to maintenance, repair and roadside assistance services across Europe.
Alltrucks operates a network of more than 700 partner workshops throughout the continent. However, individual service agreements and technical qualifications are required to establish the local support capabilities needed for SuperPanther’s electric trucks.
From European truck production to after-sales services
The latest development follows SuperPanther’s transition from vehicle testing to commercial operations in Europe.As previously reported by Sustainable Truck&Van, the company’s eTopas 600 battery-electric tractor entered series production in July 2026, in cooperation with Steyr Automotive in Austria.
The truck has already been introduced into customer operations in several European countries, including Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Poland and the Czech Republic, according to the manufacturer.
SuperPanther previously announced plans to deliver approximately 100 electric trucks in Europe by the end of 2026, with a target of 1,000 units by the end of 2027.
Building a European support network
As vehicle deliveries increase, establishing a reliable service network becomes an important condition for further commercial expansion. The agreement with Fahrzeugtechnik Rieger illustrates how SuperPanther intends to translate its collaboration with Alltrucks into local partnerships capable of supporting daily transport operations.
The broader cooperation covers maintenance and repair services, technical support and 24/7 roadside assistance. Alltrucks has also been working with its workshop partners on technical training and familiarisation with the eTopas 600.
SuperPanther has not disclosed how many workshops have already been qualified to service its electric trucks or provided a detailed timetable for further agreements.
