The exhibited range extends from the Atego and Unimog to the Arocs, Actros and eActros. The latter will be on display with the eWorX all-in-one solution. eWorX is built on the eActros and was developed by ZF together with a roll-off tipper from MEILLER and a set-down skip loader from PALFINGER.

On a single battery charge the eActros LongHaul will have a range of around 500 kilometers. The e-truck will enable high-performance charging, or so-called megawatt charging. "The electrification of heavy long-distance transport is the next milestone on our road to CO2-neutrality", commented Karin R...

The eActros Long Haul is expected to have a range of 500 km on one battery charge, as well as 40 ton total weight. The truck will also enable the so-called megawatt charging, in order to charge the batteries at higher speed.

At IFAT we saw some results of the collaboration promoted by ZF and Mercedes-Benz Trucks with Palfinger, a primary producer of crane and lifting solutions, to equip a Mercedes-Benz eActros demonstration truck with a skip loader.

Just like the eActros, the eEconic relies on the ePowertrain, the electric powertrain that consists of an electric rigid axle with two integrated electric motors and a two-speed transmission. The two liquid-cooled motors generate a continuous output of 330 kW and a peak output of 400 kW.

In a first step both companies have signed a cooperation agreement on a strategic partnership to establish a pilot line for the production of lithium-ion battery cells and for the assembly of batteries at Daimler Truck’s Mannheim site.
