Initially set to be released in the U.S. market, the class 8 battery-electric RC8 truck is set to go into series production in Q4 2024, at Hexagon’s new 200,000-square-foot facility in Dallas, Texas. Tern trucks will be available through the Hino dealer network across the U.S.

Hexagon Purus is set to supply hydrogen storage and battery packs to Toyota Motor North America for the series production of its heavy-duty fuel cell powertrains. These HFC powertrains will be manufactured at the Toyota facility in Georgetown, Kentucky.

The high-powered 1.2 MW chargers are expected to go into series production later this year and initially, will be rolled out in Finland and then later to other parts of Europe and North America.

The 480 kW Nexus Distributed Charging System is capable of charging up to six class 6 vehicles (medium duty) simultaneously. The company further offers maintenance and installation services to its North American customers.

At the end of 2025, a pilot programme will see Einride provide a fleet of 100 digitally optimised electric heavy-duty trucks at the Jebel Ali Port, Dubai, supporting 1600 container movements a day, which aims to save up to 14,600 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) and 158 tonnes of nitrogen oxides (NOx) annually.

With 100,000 gas vehicles in operation worldwide, Hexagon Agility sees substantial growth in NG trucks at EPA 2027.

As part of the City’s climate pledge to fully electrify its municipal transportation operations by 2040, Ford has signed a ten-year contract with the City to install and manage its Ford Pro EV chargers to power the Dallas light-duty municipal fleet.

Capable of handling up to 1400 amps and 900 volts, the Eaton Bussmann series of high-powered  fuses are customisable, meaning they can be tailored to particular specifications. Paralleling multiple fuses can increase current capability.

The facility will increase the supply of its high-powered fuses for EVs and other applications. The 10 million USD investment in this facility is part of a 750 million USD investment strategy into the company’s North American manufacturing base.

Available on ChargePoint’s Power Link 2000 stations, the system is capable of dispensing 1.2 megawatts (MW), enough electricity to power 1,000 homes. Furthermore, the system supports bidirectional charging capabilities, allowing customers increased flexibility.

BP Pulse will integrate its proprietary charging software (Omega) into EV Connect chargers to more efficiently manage duty cycles, charging times and energy management requirements which, in theory, should minimise vehicle charging times and reduce costs.

Geotab will integrate Rivian’s fleet telematics data into the MyGeotab platform, enabling fleet managers to more accurately optimise fleet performance and plan routes.
