- ## ⚡ Australian Electric Truck Sets New Range Benchmark
- SYDNEY, Australia – Zero-emissions trucking company New Energy Transport (NET), in partnership with Multiquip, has completed what is being hailed as Australia's longest-distance single-charge heavy-vehicle delivery.
- The milestone journey involved a [Windrose](https://ev.motorwatt.com/ev-database/database-electric-trucks/windrose-r700-ev "Windrose R700") electric prime mover hauling a total weight of 36 tonnes over a 480-kilometre round trip between Picton (south of Sydney) and Beresfield (near Newcastle)—all without needing to recharge.
- ### Faster and More Productive
- The demonstration proved that electric heavy trucks can now outperform diesel counterparts in productivity. The electric truck completed the journey 40 minutes faster than a diesel equivalent, a time-saving attributed to its superior power delivery, which allowed it to maintain higher speeds on uphill gradients.
- "This is a new kind of trucking company," said NET Co-CEO Daniel Bleakley, emphasizing the service's ability to offer zero-emission road freight that is competitive with diesel on both cost and productivity.
- The trial is part of a larger plan by NET to establish Australia's largest heavy electric trucking depot near Wilton, southwest of Sydney, by mid-2026.
