Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Leinfelden-Echterdingen / Kawasaki – #daimlertruck AG (“Daimler Truck”) and their Japanese subsidiary Mitsubishi #fuso Bus and #truck Corporation (MFTBC, “FUSO”) announce the handover of the first #fuso Next Generation #ecanter to Yamoto Transport Co, Ltd. (“Yamoto Transport”). The all-electric #truck is the first of around 900 Next Generation eCanters Yamoto Transport ordered from #fuso - the largest single order of FUSO’s light-duty electric #truck #ecanter so far. The remaining deliveries to the customer will follow sequentially from now on.

Yamato Transport is introducing the #ecanter as part of its efforts to achieve a 48% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 (compared to 2020), and ultimately virtually zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. #yamatotransport will use #fuso #green Lease, a lease product by #daimlertruck Financial Services Asia Co., Ltd. exclusively for the new #ecanter, designed to meet the specific needs of electric trucks. #fuso #green Lease comes up with a comprehensive and tailor-made eMobility ecosystem, including vehicle maintenance services and special warranties.

The first #ecanter was launched by #fuso in 2017 as Japan's first mass-produced electric locally CO2-emission free light-duty #truck, reducing the burden on the driver with its low noise/vibration driving. Over the last five years, several customers in markets all over the world used the #fuso #ecanter in their businesses and provided comprehensive feedback based on their real-life experiences. #fuso used this customer feedback during the development of the Next Generation #ecanter. #yamatotransport as one of the very first #ecanter customers introduced 25 units of the first generation #ecanter in their fleet in 2017. Based on their positive experience using the #ecanter over several years in home delivery and other logistics services in Japan, #yamatotransport decided to introduce around 900 units of the Next Generation #ecanter Japan-wide.  

Karl Deppen, President and CEO of Mitsubishi #fuso #truck and Bus Corporation: “FUSO’s #ecanter reduces the burden on drivers by offering them safe, low-vibration driving without emissions. This was highly evaluated by #yamatotransport, who previously introduced 25 of the first generation #ecanter back in 2017. We are honored to support #yamatotransport in their continuing efforts to go carbon neutral as they deploy our #ev trucks throughout Japan.”

The Next Generation #ecanter was launched earlier this year in various European markets, Japan and several Overseas-markets. Last month #fuso introduced the #ecanter for the first time in Indonesia and Chile.
