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.

The 1 MW stationary charging system converts hydrogen fuel into electricity, which can then be used to recharge a battery-electric (or other plug-in capable) vehicle.

As part of the agreement struck between the two companies, Quanta Services will help Navistar customers to assess their EV charging requirements and will provide them with engineering, construction and maintenance services.

The move to acquire Edison Motors is part of KG Mobility’s new parent company’s strategy to expand into the global automotive market, particularly in the fast-growing electric vehicle (EV) segment.
