The seven-dimension breakdown (method v1.0)
Performance (20%)3/5
Official press release: new 2×207 kWh LFP = 414 kWh, 6×2 dry box partial load 480 km; but this is based on the manufacturer’s internal simulation and real-world testing, with no independent third-party testing, so per the “no real-world test, downgrade one level” rule → 3 points. Reason: no real-world testing, downgraded.
source ↗TCO position (20%)3/5
Independent media confirms the new eActros 400 offers “lower-cost entry into electrification” plus weight reduction and increased payload (fifth-wheel load 9.5t); but no independent full-cycle TCO calculation, hence 3 points.
source ↗Price transparency (10%)2/5
Independent media confirms “more attractively priced entry” but no public official price figure, hence 2 points.
source ↗Compliance & market access (15%)5/5
Officially confirmed series production at the Wörth plant since 2021 + eActros 300 Tractor Germany→Turkey testing + 40+ configuration combinations — full EU compliance + series production delivery.
source ↗Warranty (10%)n/a — evidence insufficient
Warranty “per contract”, no publicly disclosed written battery warranty terms (years/SoH guarantee); the batterydesign reference covers CB400 battery pack technical specifications, not warranty terms. Gap: official written warranty terms text would suffice to close it.
Service network (15%)4/5
Daimler EU service network + complete Mercedes-Benz Trucks eMobility services; but outlet density data is not quantified, hence 4 points.
source ↗Track record (10%)4/5
Officially confirmed series production since 2021 + named testing/delivery (eActros 300 Tractor cross-border operations), strong delivery track record.
