eCANTER

AUSTRALIA’S FIRST PRODUCTION ELECTRIC TRUCK

100% electric, zero noise and zero emissions, the Fuso eCanter marks a new era as the first production electric truck available in Australia. Its 100% electric platform ensures great efficiency, performance and reliability – with over 2-million kilometres of testing completed by the Daimler factory to ensure this truck meets and exceeds the highest standards. And like all Fuso trucks, safety comes as standard with AEBS and ESP, ABS, LDWS and pedestrian detection. Now you can get the job done without it costing the earth.

POWERING AHEAD

The beauty of Fuso’s electric technology is in the simplicity of its mechanical design – less moving parts allows the eCanter to power forward efficiently and effortlessly.

SILENT CITYWIDE DELIVERIES

As the eCanter runs silently with zero emissions, it is perfect for operating in urban environments. The instantly available torque of the electric motor is perfect for stop-start driving, allowing it to move quickly and quietly through built-up areas.

100% ELECTRIC POWER

As a driver, you won’t find yourself short on performance. The electric motor generates immense torque that enhances driving comfort and efficiency. 390Nm of torque also means the eCanter has a good grade-ability for driving up steep slopes.

LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

Each high-performance lithium-ion battery pack has a capacity of 370V/13.5kWh and the eCanter has a total of six battery packs onboard. This provides a range of approximately 100 km* per charge, capable of being charged by two types of battery charging systems: normal AC charging, or quick DC charging compliant with the CCS2 protocol.

POWERING UP

The eCanter is designed to suit any type of operation and charging facility - equipped with both normal (AC) and quick (DC) charging ports.

NORMAL CHARGING (AC)

AC single or three phase (max 32A) can be used when a longer charging time is available. The charging time varies depending on the battery SOC (State of Charge) and when charging starts. Average charge time from empty to full is 8 - 10 hrs.

QUICK CHARGING (DC)

DC Charging (up to 50kW) is also available with the eCanter. Using the CCS2 charge port the eCanter can be recharged to full battery capacity in 1 – 1.5 hrs. This type of charging would suit larger fleets with eCanters on busy run schedules in and out of depots multiple times a day.

ELECTRIC FOR ECONOMICAL OPERATION

Electric vehicles have very competitive running costs when compared to traditional diesel equivalents, especially when coupled to a renewable energy supply. Fewer mechanical components also means a reduction in maintenance costs. Fuso will work with you to ensure your business is setup to extract the maximum value from your eCanter.

INTUITIVE DESIGN

Driver-oriented design elements feature throughout the eCanter, allowing drivers of all experience levels to master the all-electric platform without needing any specific skills or training.

USER-FRIENDLY LAYOUT

Drivers will find vehicle information easily, with classic analogue meters on either side of the dashboard and an upper info panel featuring the speedometer and energy meter showing the amount of power used or generated by the motor. In between the meters is the multi-information display and other indicators, for a simple and intuitive instrument cluster.

START/STOP BUTTON

Starting the EV system is easy – simply insert the starter key into the key slot and press the START/STOP button. The cabin can also be locked/unlocked using the keyless entry function.

COMFORTABLE AND STRESS-FREE DRIVING

The ISRI seat design has been optimised for driver comfort, as well as easy access in and out of the cab. Less vibrations of the all-electric vehicle also help reduce driver fatigue.

READY TO GO WHEN YOU ARE

Again, the beauty of the eCanter is in its simplicity. Fuso has come up with a simple 6 year/180,000km lease arrangement, including all maintenance requirements and a single monthly repayment figure - taking all the guesswork out of adding an electric truck to your fleet. The vehicle is also backed by a 6 year warranty, which means the eCanter is literally ‘plug and play’.
