E-Works Mobility: E-Heero comes as a power truck
BASIS IS THE SPRINTER With 180 kW (245 hp) and a range of 400 kilometers, E-Works Mobility claims to offer the most powerful electric transporter in the 3.5-ton class.
The company from Ismaning near Munich, which also converts existing vehicles, uses the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as the starting point for its Heero model. The van is fast-loading and trailer-compatible. If desired, it can also be loaded up to 4.25 tons.
Most powerful drive E-transporter
With 180 kW (245 hp) of power and 345 Nm of torque, the Heero is currently said to be the world's most powerful electric van. The energy is provided by a 110 kWh battery with 16 modules. The range is 400 kilometers.
The battery pack can be charged via CCS standard with up to 100 kW in around 30 minutes from 20 to 80 percent. Slower AC charging is possible with 2.7 kW single-phase and up to 22 kW three-phase.
Two and a half years to production readiness
According to E-Works Mobility, the team is developing the drive technology for the Heero, including hardware and software, entirely in-house. From the first version to series production, the development should have taken about two and a half years.
The company advertises that it can also convert fleets of vehicles from combustion engines to electric drives. This includes a design update in addition to new hardware and software. Prices are available on request.
