The BYD ETH8 eTrucks that will be delivered to CEVA are well-suited to freight logistics services and tailored to European requirements. The 19T trucks combine the versatility of a multipurpose platform with advanced eTruck technology, as well as a practical range of 250km and convenient fast charging. BYD is the only NEV producer to have developed its own powertrain systems, power batteries, automotive semiconductors, motors and motor controller systems. The BYD ETH8 benefits from the deeply integrated BYD eTruck platform, incorporating revolutionary technology. It utilizes an innovative 5-in-1 controller for optimum performance and energy efficiency, as well as quicker and easier maintenance to minimize downtime.
BYD’s new energy vehicle footprint now covers 6 continents, including more than 90 countries. Globally, BYD has delivered over 8 million new energy vehicles and in addition to this, in excess of 85,000 pure-electric commercial vehicles, including buses and trucks worldwide.
