The 4100mm wheelbase eDaily vehicles are powered by three modular batteries, which allow for a range of up to 186 miles – more than exceeding the day-to-day requirements of the vehicles, which cover 10,000 miles annually. The batteries are fitted within the eDaily’s truck-based chassis, meaning no compromise is necessary when it comes to the bodybuild.
Each waste collection unit – supplied by Terberg Matec UK Ltd – is powered by the eDaily’s low voltage ePTO option, removing the need for external batteries or generators, and utilising the full payload capacity. Additionally, a 360-degree camera system, audible reverse alarm, and front-and-rear lighting options maximise safety compliance.
To minimise driver fatigue and strengthen safety in operation, the vehicles are completed with heated and adjustable electric mirrors, a suspended driver’s comfort seat, front fog lamps, and a 10” infotainment system with navigation capabilities.
Lewes District Council worked closely with Northern Commercials to ensure the specifications of the vehicle maximised safety, productivity, and total cost of ownership. The eight-year or 100,000-mile battery warranty give peace of mind, while an R&M contract and 24-hour servicing ensures maximum uptime.
Mike Cutts, Business Line Director Full Range UK & RIO at IVECO UK, said: “This fleet is a prime example of the DNA baked into the IVECO eDaily, which is decarbonising fleets without compromising on functionality. Congratulations to Lewes District Council and Northern Commercials on these mission-ready vehicles.”
These vehicles also won the 2025 IVECO Mission Award in the “Grounds Maintenance and Waste Management” category.
