Quantron, a German-based automotive company, unveiled a hydrogen and electric long-haul truck at IAA Transportation 2022.
As a technology partner and platform for OEMs, Quantron AG is one of the pioneers in the industry and offers conversion of diesel vehicles to battery and hydrogen-electric drive as well as sales of its own zero-emissions vehicles.
At IAA Transportation 2022, Quantron is presenting a number of zero-emission commercial vehicles based on two self-developed hydrogen and battery-electric platforms each, and currently among the vehicles with the longest operating ranges.
Quantron has also developed the FCEV Truck together with one of the world’s leading hydrogen producers, Ballard Power Systems, as part of a strategic partnership.
The Quantron QHM FCEV stands out for its use of state-of-the-art components, including the newly developed 120 kW FCmove™-XD fuel cell by Ballard and the integrated eGen Power 130D E-axle from Allison Transmission.
Additionally, Quantron offers an optional aero package available for all QHM FCEV trucks that have been designed to increase operating range by a further 10 percent.
The truck has a range of up to 700 kilometers, but is subject to load and topographic requirements.
A world first, Quantron is presenting an all-electric heavy-duty truck platform at IAA Transportation: the Quantron QHM BEV is available as the Quantron QHM BEV 44-400 tractor unit as well as the Quantron QHM BEV 27-400 chassis in a wide range of variants.
The high-voltage battery up to 392 kWh can be recharged to provide performance up to 350 kW DC having an operating range of up to 350 km depending on weight and topographic requirements.
Especially for heavy vehicles Quantron QHM BEV, electrification takes place without changing the power take-off technology in the area of ’engine-dependent power take-off’ or ‘gearbox-dependent power take-off’.
With the Quantron QLI FCEV, the company is delivering a light truck equipped with a Ballard Power hydrogen fuel cell drive that has an operating range of up to 500 km.
In addition, Quantron also introduced the Quantron Cizaris 12 EV which is an electric bus that offers a reliable, low noise and environmentally friendly mobility solution with an operating range of up to 370 km.
