We’re proud to announce a major milestone for Ciceley Commercials: the sale of our first fully electric Mercedes-Benz eEconic, secured by Municipal Specialist, Matt Riley, for St Helens Borough Council, in partnership with Faun-Zoeller UK Ltd, who will manufacture the body for the vehicle.
This landmark order marks the beginning of our journey in supporting local authorities and operators with zero-emission technology. St Helens are now among the first councils in the UK to invest in the future of municipal transport, choosing a cleaner, quieter and more sustainable way to keep their communities moving.
A huge well done to Matt and the Ciceley Truck team for securing this breakthrough sale, and to our partners at Faun-Zoeller UK Ltd for their collaboration in bringing this innovative solution to market.
Why the eEconic?
The all-electric eEconic is purpose-built for municipal work, offering:
- Zero local emissions for cleaner air in residential areas
- Quieter operation — ideal for early-morning collections
- Low-entry cab and enhanced visibility improving crew safety and comfort
- Energy-efficient performance in stop-start city driving
A Future-Focused Partnership
This first electric truck is just the start. Ciceley Commercials is committed to helping councils and operators transition to cleaner fleets with the right vehicles, specialised bodies, charging support and long-term service expertise.
Here’s to many more electric milestones ahead!
