Danish transportation company DFDS has chosen Continental tire solutions for its electric fleet, including the Conti Eco Gen 5 tire with optimized rolling resistance and high mileage, and the ContiConnect tire monitoring system.
“We are currently replacing our diesel trucks with electric trucks. We want to drive the transition to more sustainable road transportation and show that zero-emission transport is already a viable solution today,” said Niklas Andersson, executive vice president and head of logistics, DFDS.
“The expansion of our e-truck fleet helps to support more companies in decarbonizing their supply chains and underlines our commitment to lead this development.” DFDS and Continental have been working together successfully since the beginning of 2023.
