Get a electric mobility sustainable also from the point of view of the “Total Cost of Ownership” (Tco, total cost of ownership). With this clear objective of the E-Mobility group Daimler Trucks & Buses is developing a global strategy for electric propulsion, and after the Mercedes-Benz eActros is coming in the eEconic a new truck, fully electric.
The eEconic is based on a truck electric eActros intended for the transport of heavy, whose series production will start already next year, and after a phase of testing by real use in municipal services (with the acquisition of the related feedback), by 2022 it will start its realization.
The initial configuration of the new heavy duty truck battery electric low-floor will be of the type 6×2/N Nla, where the predominant use is for the collection of municipal waste, a field of action particularly suitable, since it provides for the routes relatively short, not more than about 100 km, and runs stably can be scheduled with a high number of stops and starts.
Also, if the person is behind the wheel keeps driving style, the thrifty, thanks to the energy recovery in the braking phase, it is possible to recover electric energy to charge the battery of the vehicle, with an increase of the autonomy.
“In the regions of higher revenue, Daimler Trucks & Buses want to offer within the 2039 all new truck and bus as the vehicles are neutral in terms of CO2 emissions during the march – said Gesa Reimelt, head of E-Mobility group at Daimler Trucks & Buses – this is the end, thanks to our global strategy-based platforms, we rely on technologies and architectures, standardised worldwide in the field of electric vehicles and we are able to accelerate greatly the work of development, thanks to the synergies.
The eEconic, for example, is based on our eActros, a vehicle that is currently being tested intensively in the use of concrete and will be produced in series starting from 2021”.
“The eEconic is an important milestone in setting up a sustainable logistics in the field of municipal services, ” he added, Ralf Forcher, managing director marketing, sales & service Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks – The vehicle is ideal for the electrification by virtue of its characteristics and conditions of use, for example in the field of waste collection, characterized by constant stops and starts and daily route planned.
To this we must add two important qualities, especially in the case of use in urban areas: the vehicle travels at zero local emissions and a very silent”.
The electric propulsion of the eEconic produces no local emissions and is extremely quiet and had a positive influence, as well as on the environment, on the quality of life of the users of the vehicle, both of the inhabitants.
Among other things, the position at the very bottom of the cabin “DirectVision” with panoramic roof and port side companion in the glass, allowing the driver a direct view with the most vulnerable road users, i.e. cyclists and pedestrians, not negligible for the purposes of road safety.
And always in the key of safety, the driver benefits from the help of various assistance systems, intelligent as, for example, the assistant to the carried out, while on the level of comfort, the driver and crew entering or exiting the vehicle through only two steps.
lastly, the sustainable business strategy pursued by Daimler Trucks & Buses that by 2039 points to offer in the markets of Europe, Japan, and Nafta only new vehicles that, in the exercise of the gear (“tank-to-wheel”), are neutral with respect to CO2 emissions.
In this perspective, it is expected that by 2022, in the main sales regions Europe, the United States and Japan, the range of vehicles Daimler Trucks & Buses must include series production vehicles with electric propulsion to the battery, while by the end of the decade, it provided the integration with series vehicles powered by hydrogen.
