The low cabin of the ‘Volta Zero’ will be supported by an independent front suspension from ZF which can support a vehicle width of up to 2,600mm and an axle load of 8,200 kg.

The new facility is part of the company's plans to produce driveline components for both conventional ICE vehicles and electric vehicles.

Hendrickson claims that, compared to mechanical suspensions on the market, the elastomeric Ultimaax is up to 250 kilograms lighter.

The new facility is to supply a full range of lubricants to a broad number of industrial segments including the on-highway road transport sector.

The vehicle shown was a Ram 2500 pickup truck with four-wheel drive and peak power and torque ratings of 750 kW and 15,200 Nm respectively.

The ‘AxTrax 2’ is a follow-up to ZF’s existing line of integrated electric portal axles for buses, delivering 210 kW of continuous power and 26,000 Nm peak output torque.

Designed for both on-and off-highway trucks, the HAULMAAX EX boasts a progressive load system and angled bolster springs which reduce road shock, wheel hop and vibrations.

Customers will consult them on the best e-powertrain layout for their needs, considering factors such as: maximising use of the available space; optimising weight distribution and the vehicle’s total weight; optimising vehicle payload and power, based on the customer’s use case.

Suspensys's Mexican subsidiary Suspensys Sistemas Automotivos Ltda has moved its Mexican operations to Querétaro, while Castertech opens first warehouse abroad in the same city.

In order to achieve this goal, renewable energy projects supplying each of its major facilities will play a key role in providing green energy helping to gradually reduce the company’s carbon footprint.

This new division is the working combination of two formerly independent companies, V.S.E. Vehicle Systems Engineering B.V. (VSE) of Veenendaal, near Utrecht, Netherlands and Hemscheidt Fahrwerktechnik GmbH & Co. KG of Haan, Germany.

The German manufacturer of truck-trailer components acquired the remaining shares of Haldex which it did not already own on 1 March 2023, following an approved cash offer of SEK67.36 per share.
