Dachser is operating an all-electric Volvo truck to move swap-bodies nightly between Kladno, near Prague and Hradec Králové, east of the capital a round trip of 180km. The Volvo FH Electric in question can be fully charged in 2½ hours. The overall height including the swap-body must fit within the 4m maximum height limit but at the same time, the batteries take up a lot of space under the vehicle, so the truck has a low profile design.
