Looks very interesting for local freight.

Does it recharge on CCS? If not, why? CCS already has some 350 kW capable chargers out in the wild. I would have thought they would at least be capable of maxing that charging rate.

Any idea what their production capacity is?

EDIT- Looks like a proprietary charging system, so you must purchase the Freightliner charging solution. What a missed opportunity. Then again, it was only recently CCS was capable of such fast charging, so this was being developed long before.
Power is 320 HP to 470 HP with way more torque than a diesel
GCW is 65,000 for a single rear axle / 82,000 for a dual rear axle
Tractor weight is 16,350 - 21,800 depending on configuration.

Target markets for BEV trucks are Drayage, local delivery (things like beverage and food delivery trucks) and regional point to point.


Charges on standard CCS. Frieghtliner will sell you a charger but you don't have to use theirs. Freightliner got around the old limits of CCS when this was in development 4 years ago by designing it to use two CCS plugs.
