The topic briefly and concisely
Visit to HEERO Motors impresses industry expert and bus specialist Rüdiger Schreiber.
Europe's strongest Electric MiniBus: The new low-floor electric mini-bus with a range of over 300 km, ultra-fast charging, and top warranty sets new standards in the segment.
Circular Economy and bespoke solutions: From the conversion of used vehicles, through the intelligent repurposing of parts, to custom-built configurations for clients - Heero represents sustainability and genuine service for fleet professionals and municipalities.
Diesel out, future in: HEERO Motors electrifies the sprinter class
HEERO Motors provides diesel transporters and sprinter buses with a sustainable future. With innovative conversion concepts and specially developed drive technology, the company enables a quick, cost-efficient, and personalized switch to electromobility – already ensuring hundreds of emission-free vehicles on European roads.
Cities, municipalities, and bus operators benefit from rapid conversions, flexible solutions for special vehicles, and a comprehensive service that goes far beyond OEM offers. The new HEERO Low Entry Electric MiniBus offers maximum range, strong performance, and accessibility at attractive costs – including a sustainable circular economy and up to 8 years of warranty on the drive.
Whether converting your own fleet or searching for the perfect new electric vehicle: HEERO Motors brings the future of mobility into the present – personalized, resource-efficient, and ready for all challenges in passenger and goods transport.
The Mission: E-Mobility for Every Sprinter
Whether it's a used diesel van or a new vehicle - HEERO Motors transforms almost any model into a fully electric commercial vehicle or an Electric MiniBus. The conversion process is particularly efficient: within just one week, a conventional transporter is turned into a modern electric colleague suited for urban and route traffic.
Tailored solutions for fleets and special vehicles
HEERO Motors focuses on the Sprinter series from Mercedes-Benz and enables conversions for rear-wheel drive models from the production year 2018 onwards - whether FlatBed, chassis with special construction, or Electric MiniBus. Dominik Ashkar and Jan Schreiter can fulfill every customer request with their team: The patented eDrive technology is developed in-house at HEERO and tailored to individual requirements.
More range, more performance, more support
The conversion of existing vehicles starts at €60,000 net. A fully equipped new Electric MiniBus is priced around 20% below the prices of many competitors. Old parts and assemblies are reconditioned for a second use - a true circular economy principle that convinces not only young entrepreneurs but also cities and municipalities.
Conclusion: Future for fleets and municipalities
HEERO Motors offers environmentally friendly, flexible and economical retrofit solutions for almost any sprinter and bus. With a focus on comprehensive service, bespoke customization, and practical efficiency, sprinter electrification is already underway - the conversion is not a future vision, but best practice on German roads.
