According to the press release, this combines a 100 percent electric Renault Midlum, which was developed by Renault Trucks and weighs 13 tons, with a refrigerated box body that is also fully electric. A second equivalent vehicle will be added to the Nestlé Switzerland fleet in September. The two vehicles will be tested in the Zurich and Lausanne regions for the distribution of Nestlé Frisco Findus ice cream and frozen products. With these two trucks, which have never before been used in urban goods transport, Renault Trucks and Nestlé Switzerland are taking a "first joint step towards cleaner transportation in Switzerland".
