Daimler Truck AG subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (Fuso) will present the next generation of its FUSO eCanter at the IAA Transportation 2022 in Hanover from September 20-25.
The new battery-electric light-duty truck is the ideal companion for a wide range of applications - from inner-city distribution to landscaping, municipal applications, towing services, and construction duties.
The Next Generation eCanter is characterized by its overall ecological and economical concept. The introduction of the Next Generation eCanter is a milestone on the way to Daimler Truck's CO2-neutral vehicle fleet. The company aims to sell only vehicles that are CO2-neutral in operation in the triad markets of Europe, North America, and Japan from 2039 onwards.
The vehicle is compatible with various bodies, covering almost all industry-relevant requirements of customers in the light-duty truck segment between 4.25 and 8.55 tons.
The eCanter is Daimler Truck's first fully electric light-duty truck produced in small series.
The vehicle will be manufactured at Fuso plants in Tramagal (Portugal) and Kawasaki (Japan).
