Explozia prețului la motorină a făcut ca autocamioanele electrice să devină opțiuni mai ieftine decât cele diesel pe pieţe cheie din Uniunea Europeană

The rising diesel prices due to the Iran war have made electric trucks a more cost-effective option in several EU markets. A report by Transport & Environment indicates that electric trucks are cheaper to operate than diesel models in key countries. By 2026, electric trucks could save operators significant amounts over five years, with payback periods of around two years. The transition to electric trucks has been slow due to high purchase prices and inadequate charging infrastructure, but rising diesel costs are shifting the economic argument. Additionally, Chinese electric trucks are expected to be significantly cheaper than European models, further impacting the market.
