New Generation DAF XD Electric

Driving zero emissions

Combining the best of both worlds

The award winning New Generation DAF XD is now available with a highly efficient electric powertrain. Built on the same platform focused on efficiency, safety and direct vision, the DAF XD Electric offers the best of both worlds: the best DAF ever built with advanced technology contributing to a more sustainable future. Advanced safety features. State-of-the-art powertrain. Superb driver comfort. Low mounted cab. Characteristics that make the XD Electric ideal for regional and city distribution. An all-round transportation solution for zero emission applications.

State-of-the-art electric engines

The advanced DAF XD Electric trucks are powered by the efficient and reliable PACCAR EX-D1 and PACCAR EX-D2 permanent magnet e-motors, which offer outputs from 170 kW/230 hp to 350 kW/480 hp. To perfectly tailor these electric vehicles to your needs and application, a full range of battery packs is available, resulting in ‘zero emission’ ranges of over 500 kilometers on a single charge. As a result, through optimal vehicle and charging planning, the trucks can even realize an impressive 1,000 fully electric kilometers per day.

Bodybuilder friendliness

The New Generation DAF XD Electric offers industry leading bodybuilder friendliness. Battery packs can be optimally tuned to the vehicle’s application, leaving ample space for side loader superstructures and crane legs for instance. A 650V e-PTO is available as an option for powering auxiliary equipment such as an electric cooling installation for temperature-controlled transport or an electro-hydraulic crane. This eliminates the need of a separate generator.

Fast DC charging standard, AC charging optional

Fast DC charging standard, AC charging optional

The New Generation XD Electric can be fast charged with powers up to 325 kW, allowing to boost a 3-string battery pack in just over 45 minutes from 0 to 80% of its capacity. Even the largest battery pack can be fully charged from empty to 100% in less than 2 hours.

Optional is an on-board charger with the capability of AC current charging of up to 22 kW. This provides highest flexibility to operate the vehicle, even in remote areas.

Supporting your transition to electric driving
Our DAF dealers support you with tailor-made sales advice based on advanced route simulation models for a smooth conversion to zero emission e-trucks. Furthermore, they offer operational support through a full array of premium PACCAR Chargers, perfectly tuned to the new XD Electric trucks.
