The new eActros 600
Charged to change
All-electric, sustainable, profitable: the eActros 600 for the long-haul is ready and heralds a new era in the transport industry. The game changer from Mercedes‑Benz Trucks is here.
Highlights
Time for a new chapter.
The all-electric eActros 600 is not only sustainable and profitable. It is part of an integrated solution to help you get started with eMobility: it includes eConsulting for the questions that arise for your business, custom financial options and helpful digital services.
- Impressive range
- Powerful drive
- Fast charging
Made for long distances: With its groundbreaking range of 500 kilometres without recharging, the eActros 600 is bound to impress.10
Smart and powerful: With a peak output of 600 kW, the eActros 600's innovative eAchse delivers the power needed for a tough daily transport routine. All of this with top efficiency, thanks to Predictive Powertrain Control.
With megawatt charging, the eActros 600 charges its long-life lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries from 20% to 80% in approx. 30 minutes9 for shorter charging stops and more time on the road.
Range
Electrified efficiency.
Long distance without charging worries: the eActros 600 can cover a range of 500 km without recharging.10 And with its megawatt charging system, it can charge from 20% to 80% in around 30 minutes.9 Its drive system creates extra power. What's more, the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries don't require nickel or cobalt and offer huge advantages when it comes to both service life and energy flow.
Range
Electrified efficiency.
Drivetrain: full steam ahead.
On uphill gradients or when accelerating: efficient driving requires the right drive power. The new eAchse is specially designed for this purpose. With 400 kW of continuous electric power and a peak output of 600 kW, it powerfully brings the eActros 600 forward and uphill. With 4‑speed transmission technology and the Predictive Powertrain Control system, energy consumption can be reduced by as much as 50% compared with diesel-powered vehicles.
LFP battery: charged for big things.
Sustainable and economical, silent and full of power: With newly developed lithium iron phosphate batteries, the eActros 600 offers you a complete package of excellent features:
- Range: 500 km without recharging1
- Service life of up to 1,200,000 km
- Megawatt charging from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes2
- Sustainable battery cell design without cobalt or nickel
- Six-year warranty
1 The range has been determined internally under specific test conditions, after preconditioning with a 4x2 semitrailer tractor with a gross vehicle combination weight of 40 t, at an ambient temperature of 20 °C in long-distance operation, and can deviate from the values determined in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/2400.
2 Based on internal simulations because a binding and universal Megawatt Charging System (MCS) standard is currently still in development.
Lifecycle assessment
Up to 80%* lower CO2eq emissions.
With the eActros 600, you can reduce your CO2eq footprint. Although initially recording higher CO2eq emissions in production due to its batteries compared to a comparable diesel truck, the eActros 600 reaches break-even point after just over 100,000 kilometres driven, provided you exclusively charge it with renewable energies. Over the course of approximately 10 years or 1.2 million kilometres driven throughout its entire lifespan, from production to the end of its service life, the eActros 600 saves up to 80 percent CO2eq emissions, depending on the power mix.* This is the result of the eco-balance – the analysis of the energy balance and the impact on the environment.
If the eActros 600 is charged with entirely renewable energies (EU Green Grid Mix**), its CO2eq balance compared to comparable diesel trucks is already neutral after just over 100,000 kilometres on the road – despite an expected lifespan of around 1.2 million kilometres.
If the eActros 600 is charged with the average electricity mix including fossil energy sources (EU Grid Mix 2020**), it surpasses comparable diesel trucks after roughly 195,000 kilometres and neutralizes the CO2eq balance since production.
After up to 10 years and up to 1.2 million kilometres, the eActros 600 has completed its service. During this time, it has not only avoided CO2eq emissions that comparable diesel trucks would have generated in the same period. Moreover, throughout its entire lifecycle, the eActros 600 saves up to 51 percent in air and water pollutants. Thus, water bodies can be protected from excessive algae growth, primarily caused by nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus.
The eActros 600 achieves the highest possible savings when it sources its power throughout its entire truck lifespan from renewable energies such as biomass or wind, solar, and hydro energy. The EU Green Grid Mix 2020 precisely reflects this average power supply sourced from 100 percent renewable energies.
It goes without saying that your truck can also charge from sources that include both renewable energies and fossil fuels. The EU Grid Mix 2020 represents this electricity mix. Compared to a diesel vehicle, this power mix is also economical.
While the total CO2eq balance of the eActros 600 compared to a comparable diesel truck evens out after just over 100,000 kilometres with the EU Green Grid Mix 2020, it takes approximately 195,000 kilometres with the EU Grid Mix 2020.
* The EU Green Grid Mix 2020 is based on a lifecycle assessment according to ISO 14040:2006+A1:2020 and ISO 14044:2006+A1:2017+A2:2020 standards and has been critically reviewed by an external third party, TÜV Rheinland. The data and assumptions underlying the lifecycle assessment, including the specifications for the functional units and methods, have a significant impact on results. Therefore, a comparison with other truck models or vehicles is neither intended nor recommended.
