By Jim Gibbins - 1st July 2021
Germany / Turkey - FEV Turkey of Istanbul, Turkey (a division of FEV GmbH of Aachen, Germany) has developed automated driving functions for TRAGGER1, a new generation of battery electric service vehicles aimed at cargo and people transportation in various commercial and industrial settings. Production will take place at TRAGGER’s facility in Bursa, Turkey.
In their original, non-autonomous state, TRAGGER vehicles offer a load capacity of 700kg (1,543 lbs) and the ability to tow as much as two tons. When loaded, the 3.1m-long TRAGGER can handle a gradient of up to 17% and offer turning circles of 2.8m in diameter. A full charge can be obtained in just six hours with a traditional main current of 220V, and the Quick-Drop battery pack makes for efficient serviceability.
