If you think you’ve seen some wild RVs, this one may reset the scale. Professional truck driver and content creator Tobias Wagner, better known online as Elektrotrucker, is preparing to drive around the world in a specially converted Mercedes-Benz eActros 600. A full Bliss Mobil living module sits behind the cab, turning this electric truck into a rolling home. Wagner plans to make the entire journey on battery power.
Mercedes-Benz Trucks says the route will cover about 28,000 miles through more than 30 countries over roughly one year, with a goal of no more than 80 charging stops. According to Mercedes, the trip would be the first known circumnavigation of the globe in a fully battery-electric truck. What really caught my attention is how far Wagner hopes to go between those stops. Here’s how this massive electric motorhome works and why its 621-mile range target could be the toughest part of the trip.
