Paris, France / Amsterdam, Netherlands – April 15, 2026 – Milence, the joint venture between Daimler Truck, TRATON GROUP and Volvo Group, has launched a cross-border initiative together with key industry stakeholders to demonstrate that electric road freight is an operational and economically viable reality for Europe.
The Power to Go Further Tour will cover a 1,000 km journey from Paris to Berlin using battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and charging exclusively at Milence hubs in Saint-Witz (FR), Ghent (BE), Maasmechelen (BE), Zwolle (NL), Mogendorf (DE), Kassel-Lohfelden (DE) and Vockerode (DE) while showcasing one of Europe’s first fully operational clean transport corridors.
