Singapore Welcomes the First Scania Battery-Electric Logistics Truck
SINGAPORE, August 29, 2023 /chinatrucks/ -- Singapore’s logistics sector recently took delivery of the first battery-electric truck from Scania.The truck acquired by Jasico Express Services, a local transport and freight-forwarding company – was officially handed over and launched at the premises of global logistics company, DB Schenker.
As DB Schenker’s transport partner since 1993, Jasico Express Services will deploy the new truck exclusively to support DB Schenker’s operations in Singapore.
“We congratulate both companies to be the first movers in the logistics sector to make the transition to the Scania battery-electric truck, for a more sustainable future,” said Heba El Tarifi, Managing Director of Scania Southeast Asia.

The European-standard CCS type 2 plug-in connection carries out direct current charging at up to 130 kW/ 200 A.Moving forward in sustainability partnerships“The decision to invest in the new Scania battery-electric truck stems from our strong partnership with DB Schenker and our shared desire to meet its parent Deutsche Bahn green transformation goal for climate protection, nature conservation, resource protection and noise reduction,” said Neo Leong Chok, Managing Director and Owner of Jasico Express Services.
“We are thrilled to partner with Jasico Express Services to introduce Singapore’s first 25-foot electric truck for the logistics industry,” said Catherine Soo, Chief Executive Officer (Singapore and Malaysia Cluster) of DB Schenker. “This innovative step is a testament to our commitment to carbon neutrality by 2040 and to providing innovative transport solutions for our customers.”
