The popular truck simulation welcomed the first electric vehicle. Players Euro Truck Simulator 2 can be downloaded into the game for free Renault Trucks E-Tech T. It is only available as part of quick orders. The developers explain this with an experimental phase. The load path for this truck is limited to 300 kilometers. If you run out of power on the way, you can use the emergency charging service and top up your juice for a fee.
The vehicle has a completely new interior and 4×2 chassis. The powertrain includes three electric motors located next to the transmission in the center of the chassis, which together provide power 490 kW. The truck is equipped with a new fully digital on-board computer with two screens. In addition, a blind spot detector is integrated into the A-pillars. A different interior layout is also available for the right-hand drive variant. E-Tech T uses regenerative brakingwhich allows it to partially recharge up to 80% of the energy put into acceleration using the engine or service brake.
More electric trucks are set to arrive in Euro Truck Simulator 2 in the future.
