Mercedes-Benz electric truck in practical use in Germany
(January 3, 2021) HAMBURG, Germany — The battery-powered Mercedes-Benz eActros is starting another customer trial with Netto Marken-Discount in the greater Hamburg area. The food discounter is testing the heavy-duty electric truck to supply its Hamburg supermarkets with, for example, fruit, vegetables, dairy products and dry goods. The eActros does three to four tours every day, often covering distances of more than 100 kilometers (62 miles). Between tours, the vehicle is recharged at the Netto depot in Henstedt-Ulzburg just outside Hamburg.
