Cena električnih kamiona: da li je elektromobilnost skupa?

How much does an electric truck cost? At the moment, buying an electric truck is often more expensive than a diesel truck. However, running and maintaining an electric truck fleet is less expensive. Energy & fuel costs are also cheaper on electric trucks compared to diesel. All this, also considering in some case the opportunity to leverage governmental incentives , can make the total cost of ownership (TCO) competitive for electric trucks VS. diesel trucks.

The switch to electromobility requires careful planning: obtaining the advice of an expert allows you to make the transition smoothly. We provide tailor-made support for appropriate products and services to maintain your peace of mind and your operating budget, making your transition to electric vehicles easier. We can perform a true analysis of your fleet in order to draw up a transition plan covering several years and provide you with an indication of your CO2 emissions reduction.

People often wonder if it is truly cheaper to drive electric trucks. Taking into account recent diesel and electricity cost increases and using a prediction on future prices based on financial markets, we anticipate that the energy cost per km will be on average in Europe 40% lower with battery electric compared to diesel trucks for city applications (and 60% for France).

Recharging can be carried out on-site, at off-peak times overnight, but also during operation. Indeed, there’s the opportunity to make provision for fast or partial charging, during a lunch break, for example. Our experts provide trusted, pragmatic advice to enable you to make the best choice in infrastructure installation options, based on your business and how your trucks are used.

Electric truck batteries are now massive produced. Their weight and size is getting smaller and it is easier to recycle them. It is thus less expensive to produce electric trucks. By 2030, the TCO over 7 years of an electric truck will be lower than that of a diesel truck.
