Marsa Maroc has placed an order for 106 Terberg electric terminal tractors, marking the largest single order for Terberg EV terminal tractors to date. The vehicles will be deployed at the new terminal currently under development at Nador West Med in Morocco.
The tractors will be manufactured at Terberg’s production facility in Malaysia and will feature large-capacity batteries designed to deliver sufficient range for multiple shifts. The order highlights increasing confidence from global port operators in Terberg’s latest-generation electric terminal tractor technology, supported by successful operations already underway at terminals worldwide.
Terberg’s EV terminal tractors offer several key benefits, including lower carbon emissions, reduced maintenance requirements and improved working conditions for drivers and terminal personnel. According to the companies involved, the order further confirms that electric terminal tractors are now able to match the performance of traditional diesel units while delivering clear sustainability advantages.
Marsa Maroc Group is Morocco’s largest port operator, managing operations across more than ten port sites. The company is currently investing in the development of a greenfield terminal at Nador West Med. The project is being developed jointly, with part of the terminal in partnership with Terminal Investment Limited (TIL) and another section in cooperation with CMA CGM.
Once completed, the terminals will provide 1,520 metres of quay length, 70 hectares of yard space and an annual throughput capacity of 3.4 million TEU. The first phase of the project is scheduled to become operational in early 2027.
Terberg distributor Spia Maroc will be responsible for supplying and maintaining the tractors, supported by a team of more than 500 engineers and technicians.
