2024 Mercedes-Benz eActros 600

In 2021, Mercedes unveiled its first electric truck, eActros. Since then, several versions of the eActros have been introduced with different ranges, and now the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 with a range of 500 km is coming to the market.

This truck is powered by two electric motors with a total power of 536 hp, or 805 hp at full capacity. It is equipped with three lithium-iron-phosphate batteries with a total capacity of 621 kWh, enabling a range of 500 kilometers. The charging capacity is up to 400 kW, but the company plans to offer MW charging as well, however, even without this, the truck’s batteries are charged from 20 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes. Mercedes notes that about 60 percent of their customers’ long journeys are shorter than this distance. For companies that have to cover longer distances, the eActros is ideal, as it can cover well over 1,000 kilometers in one day, and drivers can recharge their batteries during breaks.

The truck has better aerodynamic solutions, undercarriage panels, air deflectors on the A pillars, matrix LED headlights, but also more space for passengers because the cabin has been extended by 80 mm.

Mercedes claims that the eActros is as durable as the Actros with an internal combustion engine and can travel up to 1.2 million kilometers in ten years. Even after that period the batteries should allow more than 80 percent range.
