The moving and logistics company Friedrich Friedrich from Griesheim has, in November 2025, for the first time put a fully electric truck into operation. According to the company, it is a Fuso eCanter with a permissible gross vehicle weight of 7.5 tonnes, a 30-cubic-meter box body, and a lifting platform. The vehicle is intended mainly for in-house logistics of a longstanding customer in Darmstadt. The range of the electric truck is around 200 kilometers, according to Friedrich Friedrich.

To meet the specific requirements in the moving and logistics business, the vehicle was extensively modified. The loading floor features additional eyelets for tie-down straps as well as a holder for a pallet jack to secure the cargo. Both the body and the vehicle are equipped with LED lighting.

The driver of the new vehicle, Cezary Musial, benefits from a modernly equipped cab. The eCanter includes, among other things, adaptive cruise control and the Apple CarPlay interface.

„The introduction of our first fully electric truck is far more than an investment in the fleet; it is a clear signal
