Running from 1 July 2022 until 31 December 2025, NextETRUCK – Efficient and Affordable Zero Emission Logistics Through Next-Generation Electric Trucks – aims to play a pioneering role in the decarbonisation of vehicle fleets, demonstrating next-generation e-mobility concepts. The project contributes to zero-emission vehicles and ecosystems that are holistic, innovative, affordable, competitive, and synergetic.
The project builds concepts tailored for regional medium freight haulage with at least a 10% increase in energy efficiency compared to existing highest-end benchmark electric vehicles. In addition, it prepares concept and infrastructure demonstrators for fast charging. Finally, NextETRUCK offers new business models to increase end-user acceptance and foster market uptake of the project solutions.
