The "eActros 600 European Testing Tour 2024" by Mercedes-Benz Trucks has seen two e-trucks travel 4,436 kilometers entirely on battery power, reaching the North Cape in Norway, the northernmost accessible point in Europe by road. These near-production prototypes of the eActros 600 electric flagship departed from Frankfurt am Main on June 11 for the company's most extensive test to date. The tour covers over 20 European countries, with each truck traveling more than 13,000 kilometers while towing a total weight of 40 tons. A significant milestone includes reaching Tarifa in Spain, the southernmost point of Continental Europe.

During the tour, the e-trucks tackled the longest leg in Norway, covering 480 kilometers on a single battery charge, mostly on rural roads with challenging topography, and still had a 30-kilometer range left. Despite facing strong winds and rainy conditions, the eActros 600 prototypes consistently proved their reliability throughout their journey
