Mercedes eActros Trucks for Sale (1)
The all-electric, battery powered eActros hit the UK’s streets in May 2022 – albeit in very small numbers initially. Aimed at short-haul distribution, the eActros is available as a 4×2 or 6×2. Since they are battery-powered they are permitted an extra tonne on the gross vehicle weight, making them 19 or 27 tonnes GVW. With a maximum range of 250 miles for the four battery pack version of the 27-tonner, there is a choice of battery packs depending on the range required by the truck buyer. If you are looking for silent operation then you should take a serious look at these trucke – they produce only half the noise of a diesel truck.
