Amazon Orders Over 200 Electric Heavy Trucks From Daimler For Deploying In Europe
Online retailer Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) said on Tuesday that it has ordered more than 200 new eActros 600 vehicles from Mercedes-Benz Trucks to deploy in Europe in a bid to electrify its fleet.
在線零售商亞馬遜(納斯達克:AMZN)週二表示,它已經從梅賽德斯-奔馳卡車訂購了超過200輛新的eActros 600車輛,以在歐洲部署,旨在使其車隊電氣化。
What Happened: The trucks will join Amazon's transportation network later this year, the company said, while adding that they will be deployed across high-mileage routes in the UK and Germany.
發生了什麼:該公司表示,這些卡車將在今年晚些時候加入亞馬遜的交通網絡,並補充說,它們將部署在英國和德國的高里程路線。
The trucks, it said, will transport trailers to and from Amazon's fulfillment centers, sort centers, and delivery stations. They are expected to transport over 350 million packages every year once fully operational.
它表示,這些卡車將交通拖車進出亞馬遜的履行中心、分揀中心和配送站。一旦全面投入運營,預計每年將交通超過35000萬件包裹。
"It is the biggest electric heavy truck order by Amazon to date anywhere in the world, and is an important step as we work to achieve our Climate Pledge commitment to reach net-zero carbon emissions across our operations by 2040," Andreas Marschner, Vice President of Amazon Worldwide Operations Sustainability, said in a statement.
亞馬遜全球運營可持續性副總裁安德烈亞斯·馬爾施納在一份聲明中表示:「這是亞馬遜迄今爲止在全球範圍內最大的電動重型卡車訂單,也是我們實現氣候承諾的一個重要步驟,承諾到2040年在我們的運營中實現碳排放淨零。」
Mercedes Benz Trucks is part of the Daimler Trucks division (OTC:DTGHF).
梅賽德斯-奔馳卡車是戴姆勒卡車部門(場外交易:DTGHF)的一部分。
Why It Matters: The eActros 600 is a long-haul electric truck from Mercedes Benz Trucks manufactured at its plant in Wörth, Germany. It offers an installed battery capacity of over 600 kilowatt hours and a range of 500 kilometers.
重要性:eActros 600是梅賽德斯-奔馳卡車生產的一款遠程電動卡車,在德國沃爾特的工廠製造。它的電池容量超過600千瓦時,區間達到500公里。
Amazon said on Tuesday that it will install 360 kW electric charging points at key sites to ensure there are no hurdles to charging these trucks while also working with stakeholders to support the installation of external charging points in suitable locations.
亞馬遜週二表示,將在關鍵地點安裝360千瓦的電動充電點,以確保在給這些卡車充電時沒有障礙,同時與利益相關者合作,以支持在合適地點的外部充電點的安裝。
Amazon is investing more than a billion euros in the coming years to electrify its transportation network across Europe. In May, the company deployed 50 electric heavy trucks in California as well.
亞馬遜在接下來的幾年中將在整個歐洲投資超過十億歐元,以電氣化其交通網絡。今年5月,該公司還在加利福尼亞州部署了50輛電動重型卡車。
