Electric truck for urban logistics

The aim is to develop a new 16-tonne electric urban truck, at a comparable cost in total cost of ownership to that of a diesel vehicle, which is a prerequisite for the widespread adoption of alternative power units.

The vehicle, code-named Oxygen, will have a lowered cab giving the driver an excellent direct view for optimal protection of road users; a large windshield and multiple cameras instead of rear-view mirrors, offering a 360° view.

Delivery of the prototype is scheduled for the end of 2022. The truck will be trialed for urban deliveries in Paris, starting in 2023.
