With the eActros, filling stations are replaced by charging stations! Thanks to a battery capacity of up to 448 kWh, the eActros has a range of up to 400 km. With a charging capacity of 160 kW the eActros charges from 20 to 80 % in just over an hour (with three batteries) and in around an hour and a half (with four batteries) with DC fast charging. The standardised charging system makes charging as intuitive as possible, simply apply the handbrake, connect the plug to the vehicles charge socket and the charging process begins.

At the Commercial Vehicle Show, Midlands Truck and Van are excited to also be exhibiting an all-electric answer to the challenge of zero emission city centre deliveries – the Fuso eCanter.  With 38 configurable variants, whatever your requirement, the Fuso eCanter will fit the bill.

The 38 variants are made up of 3 weight classes, 6 wheelbases, 2 cab types and 3 battery options, S = 41.3kW, M = 82.6kW and L = 123.9kW which offers a range of 70km to 200km. With a body/payload allowance of up to 5,155kg with the 8.55 tonne variant, this sturdy all-purpose truck is a real workhorse. Optional factory dropside & tipper bodies are available, but we can also provide more bespoke solutions which can also be equipped with mechanical power take-offs.
