Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 completes 1,400-mile EV Rally tour.

The all-electric eActros 600 truck completed a five-day journey around the UK, fully freighted at 40 tonnes GVW, in an event that saw around 50 electric vehicles of varying types and sizes visit a total of 26 locations around the country – one for each letter of the alphabet.

The eActros 600 was one of two trucks taking part in the event, which took place between 1-5 July, and the only tractor unit.

A total of seven Mercedes-Benz Truck drivers took to the wheel of the eActros 600 during the event, one of which was Daimler Truck UK Head of Future Sustainability, James Venables:

“The truck is big, bold and exciting and taking part in this event has been great fun but, more importantly, we’ve proved that our engineers are right when they say the truck can cover 500 km on a single charge.

“The EV Rally is all about showcasing today’s electric vehicles and the fact that a multi-day marathon journey is very much achievable, using a network of charging points.”

When Will Haggis’s daughter wanted a truck just like her dad’s, who was he to say no?

Little Caleigh proudly ‘drives’ her own truck, which is a brilliant replica of her dad’s Actros – a model which has impressed both dad and daughter.

Having been a HGV driver for almost 25 years, Will has driven Mercedes-Benz trucks for the last five and has been pleased with the change – from driver comfort, safety features and the MirrorCam.

“What a change. The driver comfort has gone up, driver safety… overall the whole package of the truck has improved no end. Loving the blind side feature of the cameras following the swing of the trailer.”

We’re so pleased to hear you’re enjoying your truck, Will.

The image below of Will’s beloved truck was taken at this year’s TruckFest event in Lincoln, while daughter Caleigh sits smiling in her own unit.

Long may their love of trucks continue!

Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 takes on Europe in the biggest test run in the history of Mercedes-Benz Trucks!

Two fully electric-powered eActros 600 prototypes are currently making their way through 20 European countries.

The two fully electric-powered eActros prototypes set off from Frankfurt am Main last Tuesday towing a total of 40 tonnes in weight and will cover over 13,000 kilometres during the journey, which will see them travel through 20 European countries, including the northernmost and southernmost points in continental Europe – The North Cape in Norway and Tarifa in Spain.

The eActros 600 – available in the UK later this year - offers the highest battery capacity in the Mercedes-Benz Trucks range at 600 kilowatt hours*, with the ability to cover 500 kilometres without the need to charge, and will enable megawatt charging, with batteries being charged from 20% to 80%** in around 30 minutes.

We’ll be keeping you up-to-date with the trucks' progression so stay tuned!

Take a look at the eActros 600 here: https://hub.mercedes-benz-trucks.com/gb/en/trucks/eactros-600.html

*The eActros600 has three battery packs, each with 207kWh. Capacity of battery may be dependent on use case and conditions.

**Based on internal simulations since a binding and uniform Megawatt Charging System standard is still currently under development.

Huge congratulations are in order for Apprentice Technician, Matthew, who recently came 1st place in the National Qualifiers for the World Skills event – a competition which recognises the role of a Heavy Vehicle Technician.

The accolade has secured Matthew a spot in the competition’s final, which takes place later this year.

Matthew is a 3rd year apprentice at Intercounty Truck & Van, who are extremely proud to have him as part of their team.

Well done Matthew and good luck for the final! 🏆

Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks expands its defence portfolio with new all-wheel drive, four-axle Zetros.

Mercedes-Benz Trucks has completed its Zetros product family with a new 8x8 vehicle, which will go on show for the first time at Eurosatory’s press event later this month.

The new Zetros will be available as a two-axle, three-axle or four-axle truck and, on request, with a protected cab from a single source.

Franziska Cusumano, Head of Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks said:

“With the expansion of our portfolio, we can now offer our customers the complete product range of the Zetros high-terrain truck series. With the new Zetros 8x8, customers get a robust and highly mobile logistics vehicle with a large payload for military use. In future, they will also benefit from being able to obtain the Zetros with a protected cab from a single source.”

Designed for heavy-duty use, the new 8x8 variant offers a significantly increased payload of up to 25 tons and more body space thanks to the longer vehicle frame, giving it an even wider range of tactical and logistical requirements than that of its previous models.

Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 makes its UK debut at Road Transport Expo!

Mercedes-Benz Trucks has unveiled its first long-haul electric truck at this year’s Road Transport Expo event, taking place in Stoneleigh, Warwickshire.

Specifically designed for long-distance distribution, the eActros 600 tractor unit is equipped with enough battery capacity to offer a range of 500km* on a single charge and boasts a Megawatt Charging System which means the batteries can recharge from 20% to 80% in around 30 minutes**.

Speaking at the opening of Road Transport Expo, which runs from 4-6 June, Head of Future Sustainability James Venables said: “Long-distance distribution is the lifeblood of our nation’s economy, and the move towards electric transport is gathering pace all the time – which is why we believe the eActros 600 is arriving at the perfect moment for our industry. We’re looking forward to explaining the benefits it can offer, and the long-term back-up we can provide, to operators across this show’s three days and beyond.”

The displayed prototype also previews the new, aerodynamically optimised ProCabin. Orders for the eActros 600 opened in November 2023, and is due to enter series production later this year.

Heavyweight champion of Lincolnshire…��

This week’s is Clavell Transport's new Mercedes-Benz Actros L, supplied by Northside Truck & Van Ltd - Mercedes-Benz ��

This is the company’s second Actros, replacing its first which covered more than 500,000km since it was bought in 2017. ��

Not only did the reliability of its first Actros draw the company towards a newer model, but the Actros L’s powerful and economical engine means the truck won’t have to work as hard when moving lodge buildings of up to 15ft wide along country roads with frequent stopping and starting, saving on fuel. ��

Do you drive an Actros L to haul heavy loads? Tell us what you like most about it in the comments.

23/05/2024

We currently have an unmissable finance offer running for a selection of Actros 2545 and 2548 LS 6x2 models - available and backed by a Certified SelectPlus Service Contract which includes comprehensive component cover, vehicle maintenance and key inspections.

All our Certified Used Trucks have passed an intense multi-point inspection by Mercedes-Benz Trucks' trained technicians, designed for peace of mind – and to keep your truck where it belongs – out on the road.

It’s the stamp of approval you can trust to deliver confidence in your fleet.

To ensure you’re fully prepared for the move to electrification, we have engaged the expertise of our on-hand eMobility specialists to provide answers to your most frequently posed questions.

Q – What is megawatt charging?

A – “Megawatt charging is a high-powered infrastructure designed to rapidly charge electric vehicles. This type of charging capability allows for super-fast charging in a short space of time, minimising downtime.

“We plan to make it possible to charge the batteries of the eActros 600 from 20% to 80% in around 30 minutes at a charging station with around one megawatt of energy.

“Megawatt charging stations use high-powered chargers and advanced cooling systems to manage the heat generated during the fast charging process to avoid overheating, ensuring the safety of the charging infrastructure and the vehicle’s battery.”

Stay tuned to our channels as our experts answer your questions around eMobility.
