Its amazing how efficient E-trucks are. Also the cost saving is important to mentioned. However, I feel it is also super important to compare the e-truck efficiency with a traditional diesel truck. Your Scania consuming 1kWh per km electricity consumption (mentioned in your last video), means 100kWh per 100km. With the energy of 1 liter diesel being 10.722 kWh electricity equivalent in energy terms, that means that your e-truck consumed around 9.33 liter diesel equivalent (but CLEAN!!). I doubt that a comparable diesel truck with the SAME load and road would have consumed only 9.33 liter diesel per 100km? or what do you think?

Great content!

Why don’t you try a Fastned 400kW charging station? Just to understand if a truck can fit under the solar canopy. On their app it is reported the height

Why still use old fashion mirrors when many new trucks use cameras ? Cameras seem to be legal and are more aerodynamic.

Interesting information thank you

2:20 I am so tired of people like that! 97% and still charging letting other drivers wait. Also making his own trip longer. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Ich habe eigentlich dich immer auf deutsch verfolgt. Es war richtig interessant dich auf englisch zu hören. Man dich sehr gut verstehen. Selbst für ein norddeutschen 😂😂😂. Ich war überrascht wieviele Kommentare hier zu lesen sind. Es gibt viele die sich dafür interessieren und von deinem Wissen profitieren. Da wird es bestimmt einige geben die jetzt ein Auge drauf hat und selst mal schaut auf seinen Diese lrouten wo könnte es laden. Da vielleicht der Fuhrparkleiter mit den Gedanken spielt ein e Lkw zu im die Flotte aufzunehmen. Mach weiter so ❤

QUESTION: How do you do the Deutschland to English translation?

Awesome video!

The lack of noise in urban areas is great.

Great to see how truck drivers operate with electric. I really look forward to seeing more and more electric trucks on the road and less diesel.

Interesting driving 2 up in Australia round trips can be 6000 km. Then the 50 degrees plus road temperature. Diesel is going to be around a while.

People will be amazed that you drive downhill with hot brakes….and Jake brakes! 😂

Randomly posted to my suggested videos but now I'm a subscriber. Good vlog. Keep it up.

18kw, stopped. Please explain.

Works really well in English! What output are those wind turbines shown at the end of the video?

Your English seems pretty good, why the voice over?

I'm out in British Columbia, this is mountain range country, im wondering how far you could get using max regen braking ?

wind turbines are NOT ecological... do you realize how much concrete is poured INTO the soil to build one turbine? Do you realize that none of the wind turbines will produce enough energy during it's entire life to cover the energy output which was needed to manufacture this very turbine? Do you realize what happens with the wind turbine which is disassembeld? It is dug into the soil - so that microplastic and other s#!t can be transferred into the soil and water.... for a healthy environment. Don't decive yourself - not a single wind turbine or electric car is environmental friendly. No matter what youe mainstream media tells you. It is a scam.

Of course its the Audi driver... So the same type drives Audi ICEs and EVs ..so sad . The rhing is,the Etrons are in the top 3 of fastest charging EVs with 20-80% in 15 mins or less ..why be such a d? If i see soneone waiting and im clise to 80,i'll happily leave

Very interesting, thanks for sharing

Costs for diesel truck are not even close to what your dispatch told you. Its much lower, so the difference is not that high, its only around 0.15 euro per/km

Very interesting and relevant considerations about driving with an electric truck 😎. Regarding the speech in English, I would definitely prefer the original speech in German 🇩🇪 which I could provide myself - if desired - with subtitles. I will put subtitles on in any case, as English is not my native language. It would be appropriate if RUclips could offer that you could choose the AI ​​generated speech on and off as desired.

I am wondering how long it will be before we see refrigerated trucks with built-in batteries instead of a dinosaur fuel motor, that hook up and recharge either by themselves - or via the tractor unit.

Its gonna flip fast. Businesses are only interested in the numbers.

Trucks are just starting to come onto my feed which has a lot of EVs and renewables. You are a great addition. No love or hate. Just experience and facts.

Price , weight and efficiency for batteries is still getting better every year, just like solar panels. So larger batteries will be a better option than connecting to a wire above.

14:50 How many trucks could get power from the oberleitung at the same time? Especially going uphill? Or would it be an abstract power limit like 50 or 100kW per truck and you would discharge the battery even while drawing power if you were going uphill or accelerating but could charge the battery some on downhill?

Motor choices is for optimization. Pulling logs with a 25.25m truck and trailer, or in your case truck, link, and trailer (plus midpoint crane for self loading) will bring your total allowed weight to 80tonnes (private roads) or 64t on public roads.

I never really noticed, do you guys not have "flatbed" trailers as we do here in the US where there is NO structure above the floor? It is much easier to tie down a load by just throwing a strap across the top to the other side. Of course it does leave the load exposed to weather.

hope the amazon driver doesn't get in trouble for stopping for food

What is gore hapend when 10 trucka weithing the cherging.

Great video! It seems like (some?) manufacturers have some very basic issues they need to fix, like regen should be instant, and variable, and not just completely cut off when there's some potential issue. Regen shouldn't be more difficult to control than friction brakes, if anything not having to deal with mechanics should be an advantage. Surely, using friction and regen in combination when regen isn't enough makes things a bit more complicated, but it's still not rocket science. On that note, more powerful motors(/generators) than bare minimum required to get from point a to point b means higher regen capacity. Also motors that are powerful enough to not require multiple gears reduce complexity, and the motors themselves also last longer if they don't have to work at or near their design limit a lot. Electric motors are much closer to their very high maximum efficiency over a very wide range of loads and rpms, even compared to moden diesel engines, so I don't think it's a very good decision to have such weak motors that you need multiple gears in electric trucks. I mean, 400 kW isn't much more than what a lot of passenger cars got. Sure, trucks are more likely to work at high loads for longer periods often than high performance passenger cars are, but then again, the amount of energy required to accelerate and climb remains the same regardless of how fast you do it. So increasing the maximum power significantly wouldn't result in the trucks using that max power as much as the lower powered trucks using their max power, not even close.

Really interesting video and very high quality production. Many thanks for sharing this, I wasn’t aware of how many electric trucks there were out there! I hope you get better charging infrastructure soon, since it seems quite painful to charge in regular car chargers.

This is not the first video I watch from Electric Trucker (like going backwards) but I hope your channel gains traction as it is really getting the information out to the trucking community. Even if I'm not a trucker myself, I can see the importance and impact of an industry going from polluting diesel to clean electricity!

13:48 - What an absolute cee u next Tuesday. Not only is that driver preventing other people from charging their cars, but they're also preventing the company from making any money.

Looking at the cab of this Scania, I'm left wondering why it doesn't seem to have a large screen dedicated to a map. The smartest thing about Teslas is their large screen with the smart routing feature, which takes current charge state into account to make sure you get recharged on route if needed. Extend that to take the driver's driving and resting periods into account shouldn't be too difficult.

Love your solar roof on your Tesla. I have done a 7 countries in 7 days road trip in a Tesla Model S back in 2018 for Cancer Research. I would love to do it again but in a fully electric truck.

If your ever in the UK we need to meet up. Happy to share my email so we can make a more professional contact.

We need to chat asap. Your living my dream I’ve had for over 10 years but I’ve not had the opportunity to excel in my passion.

I’ve been driving EV’s for over 11 years now and I’ve been crying out for our company here in the UK to go electric. We can easily cope with the limited mileage we cover doing supermarket deliveries. Have you seen the electric fridge trailers that Cartwrights make? The middle axle has a motor and it charges the battery on the trailer which powers the fridge. I would love to speak with you more closely if at all possible? I run an EV club here in the UK also and I’m passionate about cleaner energy. My home is almost off grid all summer. I installed all my own solar and have a air source heat pump with 33kWh home battery. I’m so jealous of your Scania truck by the way. We run LNG and CNG trucks but I’m hoping we go electric sooner rather than later. Can I find you on other social media platforms as I’m serious about having a conversation with you about what changes I can implement at my company?

Thank you for your vlogs, its really opened my eyes to the problems you guys have with charging and infrastructure. i am managing a big change in EU for solar installations and EV charging and i can see you need help with destination charging.

Idiot Audi driver!

i always prefer trains over trucks, but these are still really cool. there will always be roads that will be a lot more difficult to lay track for trains, and electric trucks that can handle steep hills will be a lot cheaper to run until the tunnels can be built.

How much per kWh does ionity charge in Europe?

I got to know your channel not long ago, fabulous content.

The Iveco probably benefits from it's engineering partnership with Nikola in the US.

Great! Gret truck.. but what will happen when the superior Tesla arrives?

Good videos keep it going 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
