ATC Computer Transport & Logistics have successfully completed tests with Windrose electric long-haul truck.

In concrete terms, the journey covered by the Chinese electric truck is a round trip starting at the Milence fast charging hub at the TruckStop in Venlo/NED, to Budapest/HUN, and back, covers approximately 2,600km in total. This is a typical route operated by ATC for one of their global hyperscale clients, which the company aims to fully electrify.
“We want to prove that battery-electric trucks will outperform diesel on long-haul routes across the continent in every eay”, said Rainer Hoerbst, Head of Green Logistics at ATC. “This is not a lab test, these are real routes, with real loads, serving some of the most demanding logistics requirements globally”.
