  Not good enough for long haul trucking (at least in the USA with its massive distances) but definitely good enough for delivery trucks and short/medium range regional stuff.

    I think a pretty big percentage of US container trucking is railhead-destination rather than long distance source->destination. It feels like a lot of freight is transported by truck when you are on the freeway, but if you go to Europe or India (where rail is mainly passengers) you'll find the roads comparatively choked with trucks. I'd love to see some numbers though -- this is all surmise.

  That seems to be for the previous version, not the announced 600 kWh one. edit: information on the new one can be found in the press release [0]: - 600 kWh LFP battery - 500 km range - 400 kW CCS charging - later: megawatt charging, 20 to 80 % in 30 minutes [0]: https://media.daimlertruck.com/marsMediaSite/en/instance/ko/Mercedes-Benz-Trucks-celebrates-world-premiere-of-the-battery-electric-long-haul-truck-eActros-600.xhtml?oid=52428265&ls=L3NlYXJjaHJlc3VsdC9zZWFyY2hyZXN1bHQueGh0bWw_c2VhcmNoVHlwZT1mbGV4JnNlYXJjaFN0cmluZz1OTVNfRmxleFNlYXJjaF9DdXJyZW50TmV3cyZyZXN1bHRJbmZvVHlwZUlkPTQwNjI2JmZsZXhJbmZvVHlwZXM9NDA2MjYlMkM0MDYzMA!!&rs=1 https://media.daimlertruck.com/marsMediaSite/en/instance/ko/...
