Never since the switch\u00a0from horse-drawn carriages to Diesel-powered trucks, has there been such\u00a0fundamental change for the industry. Technologies are being replaced and value pools\u00a0are being reallocated. But also, the daily use of trucks by their operators is changing:\u00a0battery charging and range limitations heavily affect the usage and scheduling of\u00a0electric vehicle fleets.<\/p>

Batteries replace Diesel engines as being the most valuable single component of a\u00a0truck. On a long-haul tractor with 600 kWh battery capacity, the energy storage
accounts for 60% of the total product costs. Even though this share will gradually
decrease because of improving economies of scale and evolving battery technology,\u00a0batteries have a massive influence on the value of electric trucks throughout their life\u00a0cycle. And here another difference to Diesel trucks comes into play: lifespans of\u00a0vehicles and major components like the battery will increasingly be out of sync.<\/p>
