Renault Trucks announced that, as it fulfilled this order, it passed a milestone of 2,000 electric trucks produced at its factory in Blainville-sur-Orne.

The automated terminal tractors will enter service in the first quarter of 2027 at Maasvlakte 2, an extension of the Port of Rotterdam and an ongoing construction project which was opened in 2013.

As part of its turnaround strategy and decision to outsource production and become an OED (Original Equipment Designer), the company announced a closed auction of bus, truck, and general automotive parts starting on Thursday, 23 January 2025.

The Dutch OEM has introduced significant enhancements to its new generation truck series, focusing on three key areas: efficiency, safety, and comfort.

The company announced it will be implementing job cuts this year as part of this restructuring plan. This will mean reducing its workforce by approximately 16.5%, equating to 102 full-time equivalent positions.

Both hubs are located on the Scandinavian-Mediterranean corridor, a trans-European network which connects the Nordics with southern Italy.

‘Terberg Tractors Polska’ will be based in a former truck dealership which is now occupied by sister company ‘Terberg Matec Polska’, which sells Terberg’s refuse collection equipment.

The company has established a new Power Solutions Department in Europe under its Paccar Parts Division to support its customers in transitioning from traditional diesel ICE trucks to electric trucks.

The truck charging location is being built near two major trans-European networks: the Mediterranean corridor, which connects southern Spain to Hungary; and the Atlantic corridor, connecting Portugal with northern France.

The initiative is enabled by the “hydrogen in mobility” subsidy scheme (Subsidieregeling Waterstof in Mobiliteit, or “SWiM”), which is offering a total of EUR40m to applicants next year.

The whole vehicle will be produced entirely on the line at Atessa, which Stellantis said marked a “historic moment” for the facility and “a significant step in sustainable commercial vehicle manufacturing”.

The Dutchman will work closely with new CEO Christian Schreyer and CCO Erland Morelissen as the executive management team implements the company’s turnaround strategy to address financial challenges and streamline its operations​.
