Buying decision
The EvCompass verdict
The key arguments drawn from the published data and the EvCompass editorial summary.
The same battery as the 537EV, with a range shorter by 129 km — mass and the 6x4 layout account for the whole difference. Peterbilt offers this model as a 4x2 tractor and as a vocational chassis for a dump, refuse or bucket body. Orders open since December 2025.
Strengths
- A 375 kWh usable battery and 322 km of range combine Class 8 duty with DC charging up to 350 kW.
Weaknesses
- 322 km is the maximum with the larger 375 kWh pack, while the configuration remains pre-production without a confirmed delivery.
