At icy temperatures down to -25\u00b0C, development engineers from Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks tested the e-truck intended for municipal use in Rovaniemi, Finland. Engineers tested the behavior of the batteries,\u00a0the electric powertrain, and associated systems at very low temperatures, among other things. The vehicle\u2019s batteries were charged at various charging stations in order to check compatibility between the vehicle and charging stations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">During testing, developers also tested the practicality of the eEconic with the near-production-level test vehicle using simulated waste collection routes. Vehicles must function reliably even in adverse weather conditions and fulfill their tasks, especially in municipal use. Testing in Finland has shown that the eEconic meets these requirements\u00a0with low noise and locally carbon neutral. The eEconic is now ready for the next step: practical testing with customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">In terms of vehicle architecture, the eEconic benefits from Daimler Truck\u2019s global platform strategy: The low-floor truck is based on the eActros for heavy-duty urban distribution, which went into series production in 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.automotive-fleet.com\/authors\/324937\/staff\">Automotive Fleet Staff<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"posted-by\">Source: <a
