TQM achieved record consumption during testing of the e-truck by MAN eTGX
23. 7. 2025
From July 14 to 18, 2025, we tested the e-truck by MAN eTGX during daily transports for our business partner, Model Obaly. During the test, the vehicle covered almost 927 km at an average speed of 49.4 km/h and achieved excellent energy consumption of 0.88 kWh/km, which, according to MAN Truck & Bus Czech Republic, are the best results recorded so far in testing this electric truck in the Czech Republic.
The rides took place not only in Opava, but also in the Olomouc and Zlín regions, and we also made one drive to Kysucké Nové Mesto in Slovakia. We tested the vehicle most extensively on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, when the electric truck drove almost 420 km on a single charge during trips around Opava, the Olomouc and Zlín regions, to Český Těšín and back to Opava. In the evening, the battery was connected to a charger at our premises on Bílovecká Street in Opava at 18% capacity. The charger was loaned to us by MAN Truck & Bus Czech Republic.
In addition to its excellent fuel consumption, the electric truck also proved itself in energy recovery with a value of 363.3 kWh, for which our driver was awarded an excellent rating of 75%. The results obtained help us to better understand how electric truck work in real operating conditions and provide us with important data for further decisions on their possible deployment in the future.
We would like to thank MAN Truck & Bus Czech Republic for their excellent cooperation and great technical support during testing.
