Tevva is working on the development of an electric truck with a 105 kWh battery that guarantees 227 KM of autonomy when fully charged. 

A TV is an English brand of electric trucks which has just received approval from the UK government to begin mass production of its vehicles. The company plans not only to serve the local market, but also to expand its sales to other countries in Europe.

The first model to be produced will be the 7,5 ton Tevva, which was inspired by the Iveco Eurocargo and has a similar design to the Tector marketed in South America. Tevva claims that the truck's batteries have a capacity of 105 kWh, which guarantees a range of up to 227 kilometers when fully charged.

In addition, the company also provides a variant of fuel cell which can reach autonomy of up to 500 kilometers.

Tevva is finalizing the creation of a third 19-ton PBT truck, which will also be offered as a fuel cell and will have a range of up to 570 kilometers. The trucks are manufactured in Tilbury, near London, and the company has already taken orders from at least three other companies, including Expect Distribution, Travis Perkins and the Royal Mail.

Tevva plans to sell 2023 electric trucks in 6.000 and reach 2024 annual sales by XNUMX, when manufacturing capacity will be increased. The company hopes to expand its sales to markets such as Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg.

In addition to electric trucks, Tevva intends to provide green hydrogen generated from renewable sources. As a result, it reveals that efforts are being made to expand access to green fuel and make it safer.

The manufacture of Tevva electric trucks is good news for the transport industry, as these vehicles have a lower environmental impact and are more efficient in terms of operating costs. 

In addition, Tevva offers different autonomy and load capacity options, meeting the needs of different customers. The prospect of expanding sales to other European markets is also positive, as this increases the company's chances of success.

It is important to note that Tevva is not the only company in the electric truck market. Other brands, such as Tesla, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo, are also investing in electric and hybrid vehicles to transport cargo. However, Tevva stands out for its ability to offer fuel cell options, which sets it apart from other brands.

The fuel cell is a technology that allows you to store energy in a chemical solution, which is converted into electricity when needed. This means that these vehicles can travel long distances without having to stop to recharge, which is an advantage for companies that need to transport cargo over long distances.
