At the world’s largest trade fair for logistics, mobility, IT and supply chain management, “transport logistic”, Mercedes-Benz Trucks is presenting products and services for the electric transformation of the transport industry. From 2 to 5 June 2025, Mercedes-Benz Trucks will be presenting its new electric flagship, the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600, as well as its TruckCharge brand offerings at the Munich trade fair in Hall 6, Stand 300. Under the motto “Charged to electrify logistics”, Mercedes-Benz Trucks and will provide information on the electrification of logistics processes using the example of inbound logistics at the German Mercedes-Benz Wörth plant.
Jürgen Distl, Head of Mercedes-Benz Trucks Operations: “Over the past two years, we have gained a lot of experience in using the eActros in our own supply chains with the electrification of inbound logistics in our production plants. Practical experience shows that we can already cover routes economically with electric trucks today. With this experience, we want to accompany our suppliers and customers on the path to more sustainable logistics solutions and provide support with the right vehicle technology, but also advice on route analysis and planning as well as shop infrastructure.”
Product experience with the eActros 600
The new eActros 600 long-haul e-truck celebrated its series production start at the end of the year at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth and was named “International Truck of the Year 2025”, among other things. The award is the most important prize in the industry and is presented annually by the International Truck of the Year (IToY) organization, consisting of 24 commercial vehicle journalists from Europe. The high battery capacity of the eActros 600 of over 600 kilowatt hours – hence the model designation 600 – and its particularly efficient electric drive axle developed in-house enable the eTruck to achieve a range of 500 kilometers without intermediate charging. The batteries are based on lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cell technology and offer a long service life.
TruckCharge bundles several e-infrastructure offers from Daimler Truck
Under the brand TruckCharge, Daimler Truck brings together all its existing and future offerings relating to e-infrastructure and the charging of electric trucks, i.e. consulting, infrastructure, and operations. Daimler Truck offers customers a cost-effective overall package running from energy generation to vehicle operation, so that they can make full use of the potential of electrification. TruckCharge is aimed at truck fleet operators as well as industrial enterprises with their own or externally operated truck fleet. Since vehicles from different manufacturers are generally used, TruckCharge is available regardless of the truck brand.
Electrified plant logistics at Daimler Truck
Daimler Truck is driving the transformation of the transport industry towards CO2-neutral drive systems and is also relying on e-trucks in its own supply chain. With its four production sites in Gaggenau, Kassel, Mannheim and Wörth, Mercedes-Benz Trucks is pursuing the ambitious goal of fully electrifying delivery traffic with production material under its own freight responsibility in the coming years. This makes a significant part of the direct supply chain locally emission-free. Daimler Truck’s successes in decarbonizing inbound logistics were recently awarded first place in the VDA Logistics Award 2025 by the Association of the Automotive Industry. With the award for the “Electrify Inbound Logistics” project, the jury recognizes the commitment of the interdisciplinary project team for the outstanding innovation among all applications.
