DHL and Scania present electric truck with increased range.
DHL Group and Scania have developed a new electric truck with a fuel-powered generator, enabling the transition to electric transport without waiting for a full charging infrastructure. The new Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV) will enable DHL to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 80% by using 80–90% renewable electricity. The truck is equipped with a generator that replaces one of the battery packs, reducing dependence on charging stations. DHL will begin test operations on the route between Berlin and Hamburg in February 2025.
