A look at DAF’s new all-electric truck with a 170 kWh battery pack – Only 100km range though intended for urban use
Over the last year, almost all truck makers have either announced an electric truck program or they’ve unveiled an electric truck. Dutch truck manufacturing company DAF is the latest to join the trend by unveiling a new all-electric truck with a 170 kWh battery pack.
A 170 kWh battery pack capacity is fairly small for a truck of that size. For example, Daimler’s E-FUSO Vision ONE is packing a bigger 300 kWh battery pack – just like the Volvo FL Electric.
But DAF claims that it still enables a range of 100 km with a capacity of up to 40 tons, which it says is still useful in distribution applications within urban areas.
The company is also talking about a “quick charging of the batteries in 30 minutes or a complete full charge can be accomplished in as little as 1.5 hours.”
