These 12-metre electric city buses will be built in New South Wales and feature a stainless steel chassis and aluminium side panels.

According to Scania, the new e-chassis was developed to meet the demands of medium- to heavy-duty operations with an increased passenger capacity compared to the 4x2.

According to a Volvo spokesman, the market has been negatively impacted by “uncertainty about freight rates and demand, possible regulatory changes, and the impact of tariffs”.

The ‘eTGX’ truck was handed over to logistics group Jacky Perrenot of Saint-Donat-sur-l’Herbasse earlier in April at MAN’s service centre in Lyon.

This leadership change reflects growing collaboration between the companies, which have worked together since 2018. Gotion’s advanced battery technology and strong presence in Asia are expected to support Ebusco’s innovation, expand its market reach and enhance financial stability.

These tests are designed to ensure the vehicle meets the durability standards of conventional diesel trucks, aiming for 1.2 million kilometres of operation over ten years.

As part of the H2Haul project aimed at demonstrating the viability of hydrogen-powered trucks for long-haul transport,  Iveco delivered two S-eWay Fuel-Cell trucks to the BMW plant in Leipzig.

The company, founded in 1975 through the merger of five European industrial vehicle manufacturers, is marking this milestone with a year-long series of global events, special commemorative activities, and the launch of Limited Edition vehicles.

The truck in question was a Volvo ‘FM Electric’ 8x4 rigid with a tag tridem configuration, mounted with an ‘eBSF’ concrete pump, with a reach of 42 metres, installed by Putzmeister.

Production and sales of the OptiLock range will be transferred to a location in Nieuwerkerk aan den Ijssel in the Netherlands.
