Smappee EV Ultra now compatible with MAN eTrucks
A few months ago, MAN Truck & Bus brought its electric trucks to Smappee’s headquarters for a performance and interoperability test with our EV Ultra. The goal was simple: verify that truck and charger work together reliably.
Tested Together, Compatibility Confirmed
For us, compatibility is something you test, not something you assume.
During the test day, MAN and Smappee put the combination through its paces in our test environment. They tested communication between truck and charger, complete charging sessions from connection to disconnect, and charging performance.
For fleet operators, this matters. Charging is part of the daily planning of an electric fleet. Trucks need to leave on time, routes need to stay on schedule and charging infrastructure needs to perform when vehicles arrive at the depot.
The interoperability gives operators that extra certainty before putting the combination into daily operation.
What Does this Mean for Electric Fleets?
Companies already running MAN electric trucks, or planning to add them to their fleet, can use the EV Ultra knowing the combination is compatible.
This makes our DC charger a proven option for truck depots, logistics hubs and mixed fleet sites, where trucks, vans and cars may all need to charge within the same energy infrastructure.
Combined with Smappee’s energy management, charging can also be managed alongside the rest of the site’s energy use, available grid capacity and other charging infrastructure.
More to Follow
We will continue testing with other OEMs to validate charging performance across more electric truck brands and models. Our test environment is also open to manufacturers, fleet operators and partners who want to put their vehicles and the EV Ultra to the test together with our team.
