The seven-dimension breakdown (method v1.0)
Performance (20%)3/5
Official spec page: 525 kWh / >500 km; no independent real-world test, downgraded one level per “no test” rule → 3 points, rationale: no independent test, downgraded
source ↗TCO position (20%)3/5
Independent media test (Eindhoven) confirms LFP can be charged to 100% without degrading lifespan + low maintenance → favorable for TCO; but no independent full-cycle TCO calculation, hence 3 points
source ↗Price transparency (10%)n/a — evidence insufficient
No public official price found. Missing item: public official price or dealer quote would complete this criterion
Compliance & market access (15%)5/5
Independent media confirms 2025-09 start of production + 4×2/6×2 configurations + GCW 50t — full compliance + production status
source ↗Warranty (10%)5/5
Official infosheet states in writing “8 years / 4 MWh/kWh / 70% SoH / 4,000 cycles” — verbatim official written terms (strongest tier in second group), hence 5 points
source ↗Service network (15%)4/5
Official confirmation of DAF EU service network + range calculator; network density not quantified, hence 4 points
source ↗Track record (10%)4/5
Official confirmation that XD/XF jointly won “International Truck of the Year 2026” + 2025-09 start of production — industry endorsement + production track record
