Model Details

Bring modern Swiss cold-chain logistics into your HO scale collection with the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 BigSpace Refrigerated Box Semitrailer “Galliker” from Herpa. This highly detailed 1:87 scale model represents a fully electric Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 tractor unit in BigSpace configuration, paired with a refrigerated box semitrailer, finished in the red and white Galliker corporate livery.

The model is based on the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600, a next-generation battery-electric long-haul truck designed for high-efficiency freight transport with zero tailpipe emissions. In the BigSpace cab configuration, it emphasizes long-distance driver comfort with a spacious interior layout suitable for international European routes.

The refrigerated box semitrailer represents temperature-controlled logistics, commonly known as reefer transport. This setup is essential for moving perishable goods such as food, dairy products, and pharmaceuticals while maintaining strict temperature control throughout the journey. It is a core part of modern cold-chain supply networks.

The Galliker livery reflects one of Switzerland’s major logistics operators, known for extensive European distribution services and a strong focus on sustainability. Pairing this fleet identity with a fully electric tractor unit highlights the real-world transition toward low-emission freight transport in alpine and cross-border logistics corridors.
