A good understanding of vehicle use is essential for the design of batteries and the refueling or charging infrastructure. Today, only a few extensive data sets are available regarding the driving behavior of truck fleets. In this paper, we present three data sets that enable insights into European trucking behavior: (1) a dataset on European long-haul traffic, (2) a dataset on European truck stop locations, and (3) a dataset on actual truck trip data. We evaluate them regarding (1) their recency, the (2) regional and (3) temporal resolution, (4) the consecutiveness of the included data, and (5) their representativeness. Please note that this article presents a brief summary of the mentioned data sets. Detailed description of the data sets can be found in the references.enHeavy Duty electric Vehicles & BusesConsumer behaviourTrends and Forecasting of emobilityOptimal charging locationsModelling & SimulationTruck data for the future design of road freight transportconference paper not in proceedings
