The MD model now holds two distinctions in the Mack Trucks product suite: it was Mack’s first all-new truck model since the 2017 debut of Anthem. Twice.
When the MD6 and MD7 debuted in 2020, the Cummins B6.7-powered trucks represented Mack’s re-entry into the medium duty segment that the company exited 20 years ago with the retirement of the Freedom. On Wednesday at Work Truck Week in Indianapolis Mack announced a battery electric version of the MD – Mack’s first on-highway electric model that sits alongside Mack’s LR Electric refuse truck in the company’s zero emissions line.
Like its diesel siblings, the Mack MD Electric will be available in Class 6 and Class 7, in 4×2 configurations, in wheelbases of 206, 221, 236, 251, and 270-inches, and features a bumper-to-back-of-cab (BBC) measurement of 103 inches.
