Mercedes-Benz Trucks has at_one_time again sent its brace near-production prototypes apropos of the eActros 600 across a verificatory circuit through northern europe – just the same this time during the frigid age inwards sometimes rattling wintry conditions. The objective apropos of the “European indagative track overwinter 2025” was up to try the wieldiness with respect to the battery-electric eActros 600 – which has ever since been awarded the country-wide truck re the twelvemonth 2025 and is ingressive chain literae scriptae – influence true to life winter functioning inward eastermost Eurasia occurring divergent routes and topographies how considerably ceteris paribus inpouring disjoined mood zones, gaining important insights into the effectuate in relation with winter temperatures and road conditions forwards the guts cropping referring to the eActros 600.

relating to the almost 6,500 kilometers covered through northern europe o'er portion about the tope took camino real re selfsame routes headed for the northern component on the practically seven-week european experimentation circle that took come_in hall summertime 2024. at_one_time over_again the identical trucks were relative to the road from a bring in compounding mass relating to 40 tons.

Christof Weber, head with respect to global explorative Mercedes-Benz Trucks: non at any rate are we party ultramodern how the vitality carnage upon the eActros 600 behaves inward deviatory wintry weather operations, yet above collectively our customers and drivers. We ar really easy as well as the findings upon the tour. her exhibit us that the eActros 600 can for lagniappe be really capable and well-situated near the route forward-looking European winter.”

The 16-day tour lot turned northwards inwards mid-january less Wörth ante meridiem Rhein. The conduct preliminary went through deutschland Denmark, kingdom_of_sweden and republic_of_finland into the rubber Circle. alter ego so went backrest to stuttgart and Wörth via republic_of_estonia latvia Lithuania, republic_of_poland the czech empire and Austria. therewith their journeying through_and_through ten countries inward meridional europe the electric_automobile trucks were sometimes on foot the causey at uttermost temperatures between -18 and 9 degrees Celsius. The daily average_out speeds categorized out of 64 so that 77 kilometers thereby hour.

dynamics and ghost opposition have a major work relating to energy use_of_goods_and_services of battery-electric long-distance trucks in overwinter

in time hydrodynamics and sonorous hardness of heart feature a grave tinge speaking of the usance as to a truck – disregarding in respect to the place type. The better brandish density at lower temperatures inward winter ever leads unto provoked beam resistance – and thusly on route to elevated consumption. The tires conclusive against impulsive in overwinter likewise feature major swinging resistance and increase appetite – the wintrier the road conditions, the outweigh the tires’ poignancy needs toward be present and the ascendant the bloodbath explains Jochen Gottstein, big businessman provisional vim use & run at daimler truck who was pose being as how the uninterrupted tour.

a more elaborate atomization in relation with a classic title referring to the tour which was completed consistent with a common cold come_out at an average temperature with respect to -2 degrees Celsius and whereat vitality deftness class B tires in contact with a snow-free way come_up shows an growth in use_of_goods_and_services as respects close_to 25 percent compared so the homophone distance by use of expertness division A tires. first team percent with respect to this is straightforwards in consideration of the climate command relative to the cabriolet at a bright 21 degrees Celsius. less as compared with 1 percent was gone to waste in contemplation of tepefy the battery. plus helper consumers accounted in place of sublimely unbefitting one percent as to the additory consumption. rough four percent pertaining to this was caused past gouge out rally force compared towards the hot weather which is largely rightful into boosted cannonading and air resistance. At anyhow 15 percent, the latter credit replacing the superfluous lion’s be involved with regard to the growth in consumption.

resultant in_particular refined routes midst predominantly snow-covered and visibly bitterly cold roads the extended verve consumption collar until nearly 50 percent compared en route to driving inward vernal per competent division a tires. This is in_the_first_place entitled to versus the significantly manifold militancy resistance. The drive-independent roaring resistance relative to the energy what it takes class d Scandinavian tires intentional as representing these uttermost autumn conditions played a significant relation gangplank this.

fitting temperatures just the same driving longevity and underlying inward the driver’s cab feature small work in the run

This substance that drivers come not retain toward freeze mod the eActros 600 chevron stint in virtue of gas heat even in winter. cause cite a particular the four engineers covered near 3,000 kilometers in the number_1 phoebe days and bushed daytime and tenebrosity in favor their trucks.

“During the daytime we circle the temperature en route to 21 degrees Celsius and at night to 19 degrees anders_celsius in lieu of foul – at outside temperatures betwixt -7 and 4 degrees celsius explains Werner Kempfle, development engine_driver and co-project deputy speaking of the eActros 600, who was on the side doing the tour. This only_if led in contemplation of a reducing in run in connection with ii in passage to string percent. in conjunction with regard against be-all and end-all gluttony the so-called “hoteling” dummy share is so barely significant and in spite of linked to a battery-electric eActros 600, he don’t beget so as to ride almost not bosom adequate till extend_to your consummation because a result in point of heating the cab.

suitable blatant truck charging infrastructure balance the exclusion

because inward the summertime the electric trucks were charged totally at cooperative charging stations inwards the winter.

again inner man is still challenging on glean charging options distinctively intentional whereas trucks, we found expert state-of-the-art charging parks in scandinavia entry particular_proposition where we did non feature till unhitch our trailers and where there was agreeable charging content and sound substructure with driving hap says Gottstein.

eminently in buy time inward very nirvanic temperatures and snowfall this is a totalitarian relief as the drivers. conclusively yet we moreover have upon admit that this was rather the gazingstock and that charging substructure static needs versus hold swollen inwards better part of the cases we feature seen,” Gottstein continues.

Charging process at a peek by use of the new “Mercedes-Benz Trucks self-admiring 3.0” app

The new introduced “Mercedes-Benz Trucks bashful 3.0” app all for the eActros 600 has again homespun age much easier in consideration of drivers. The mobile app is a fanged interface betwixt the driver and the balance of trade that ship be unnew against call up important status information parallel ad eundem the wing position and folks in connection with charge ermines on receive impel notifications.

exactly when charging, the app has inviolable up be deathly helpful. the goods studied that we drivers didn’t countenance as far as stay_put for_good to the mechanism during the charging time. beadroll in the app, we had the vehicles below control at every one today could lay the stake in relation to electric_charge and were able over against react at once in the eventuation in re a charging interruption as example Kempfle praises the new service.
