Scania has launched its first fully electric truck – 250km-range fully electric truck

Swedish commercial trucking giant Scania has officially launched its first fully electric truck which boasts a range of up to 250 kilometres driving range, and fast charging to make longer drives possible.

The fully electric truck, Scania’s first, will be available in two battery configurations, one with a total of five batteries for a total of 165kWh installed capacity and a range of 130-kilometres, or nine batteries for a total of 300kWh with a range of up to 250-kilometres – though the company notes that the estimated range “is, of course, dependent on the weight, body type and topography.”
