Daimler has opened a new charging park for electric commercial vehicles at its Stuttgart-Untertürkheim headquarters in Germany.
Daimler Trucks and Mercedes-Benz Vans will jointly use the charging stations for their electric test vehicles.
The new charging stations have a total output of 1MW, distributed to two DC fast charging stations with 300kW each for trucks, and three more charging stations with 150kW output each for vans.
When the vehicle is connected to an appropriate station, the charging process is started via a chip by which the station recognises the respective vehicle automatically.
The stations are equipped with all common plug variants for electric trucks.
