DAF XF Electric
DAF's electric XF, as tractor or rigid: 170 to 350 kW, 210 to 525 kWh (185 to 462 kWh usable), more than 550 km claimed, charging at up to 325 kW (80 % in about 45 minutes with 420 kWh, according to DAF) and an 8-year battery warranty. For a cost comparison DAF gives an average use of 0.7 to 1.2 kWh per km across its electric range, not for the XF alone. Still missing to set it against a diesel XF: a price and a measured energy use.
