I imagine even a "fast" charge is quite slow. Good that connectors are well enough standardised.
I'm not so sure, looking at the Scania ones, its not that model but I imagine the battery size and weights are similar.

That was actually a Renault Truck. There a quite a few various electric HGV including artics around here. Quiet and clean and probably goverment grant supported.

Our local Post parcel depot now has a MAN electric van. It looks to be a rebadged VW.

The Swiss Post has been using Kyburz electric trikes for many years:
