The ‘eConic’ brings top-level technology and environmental performance as a key addition to the waste management fleet

Daimler Commercial Vehicles Mena (DCV Mena) has delivered the region’s first Mercedes-Benz eEconic collection truck to Beeah Group, following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at the Beeah Headquarters in Sharjah.

The official handover of the eEconic was completed by Emirates Motor Company Commercial Vehicles (EMC CV), DCV Mena’s authorised General Distributor in Abu Dhabi.

Kay-Wolf Ahlden, President & CEO, DCV Mena FZE said, “This MoU represents our unwavering commitment to drive innovation, foster environmental responsibility, and shape the future of mobility. By combining our expertise in commercial vehicles with Beeah’s visionary approach to waste management and sustainable solutions, we are confident in our ability to create a greener, smarter, and more efficient tomorrow.”

As a zero-emission vehicle specifically designed for urban waste management, the eEconic will be added to Beeah’s fleet of over 2,000 waste collection vehicles, offering leading-edge efficiency, safety, and environmental performance. The addition of the vehicle underscores Beeah’s commitment to decarbonising its growing fleet operations in the UAE, Egypt and KSA, while aligning with the organisation’s ambitions to achieve Net Zero emissions across its range of operations by 2040.

The delivery of the eEconic is part of a larger collaboration between DCV Mena and Beeah, which will leverage the strengths and expertise of both organisations to create innovative solutions that will benefit society and the environment alike.

“We are delighted to hand over the first Mercedes-Benz eEconic in the region to Beeah, marking a significant milestone in our partnership.

The eEconic’s zero-emission drive and advanced safety features will enable us to further enhance our sustainable waste management solutions. We look forward to our ongoing collaboration with Daimler Commercial Vehicles Mena and Emirates Motor Company to explore more ways to reduce our transport-related emissions and contribute to the UAE’s sustainability targets.”
