Electrifying your commercial fleet is a tricky thing. Sure, you want to cut your fuel costs. You want to reduce your operating variables. Heck you you even want to help corporate meet their ESG goals \u2013\u00a0but where do you start? MAN Trucks is here to help fleet managers get answers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As more and more heavy trucking fleets begin to deploy electric assets, they\u2019re proving that operators\u2019 range anxiety may be a myth on most routes. That\u2019s true enough here in North America, and truer still in Europe where distances between cities are condensed and trucks like the Mercedes eActros<\/a> and Renault E-Tech T semi<\/a> roam.<\/p>\n

MAN Trucks are also a popular choice in Europe<\/a>, and their leadership \u2013\u00a0unlike most in the industry \u2013\u00a0have been especially vocal in their criticism of hydrogen<\/a>, and have fully embraced battery-electric vehicles. As such, it\u2019s no wonder that the company took to LinkedIn<\/a> to announce its MAN electric commercial vehicles consultation team.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s Full Power here with the MAN electric commercial vehicles consultation team,\u201d writes Roger Turnbull, Head of EV Truck Consultation at MAN Truck. \u201cAfter another busy week of meetings presenting to haulage and transport organizations of all sizes across the UK \u2013 you can feel the EV interest and enthusiasm growing.\u201d<\/p>\n

MAN Trucks\u2019 consultation team helps commercial fleet operators in Europe and the UK fully understand the needs of their fleet, analyzes their fuel and maintenance costs, and helps them get a better understanding of what fleet assets are prime candidates for electrification, and what sort of charging solutions might work best for their operations \u2013\u00a0and that doesn\u2019t always mean on-site charging.<\/p>\n

\n

With the capacity for onsite charging now becoming a reality for many plus proof that operators range anxiety maybe a myth on most routes, our industry is already stepping up a gear to find out more.<\/p>\n

ROGER TURNBULL<\/a>, MAN TRUCKS<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Off-site charging solutions like those offered by Voltera and Zeem here in the US seem to be somewhat less common in Europe, but the electric trucking infrastructure as-a-whole seems to be a step or two ahead. That, combined with generally higher fuel costs compared to the US, make it a bit easier for fleets to electrify. And MAN will help them see that.<\/p>\n

The best part? MAN\u2019s consultation is free, and requires no obligation to buy. \u201cYour MAN EV Consultation Team in the UK offer free information, advice and support,\u201d offers Turnbull. \u201c[Everything] from the basics to multi-vehicle using multiple site locations. Factually checked and honest.\u201d<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t do much better than free, right?<\/p>\n
