The new FL and FE Electric trucks can be ordered now, with deliveries beginning in the first half of next year. 

According to the terms of the asset purchase agreement between the two companies, Phoenix Motor will acquire the ‘Proterra Transit’ business assets for a sum of USD10m.

The 44-tonne E-Tech T and C trucks will be assembled on the same production line as their diesel-powered counterparts at Bourg-en-Bresse.

Renault Trucks announced concurrently its own 'Red Edition' of the new generation Master.

These are highly specialist vehicles, which are to be 'converted' and equipped by Ecuadorian body builder, Iturri SA.

The pilot line is housed in a new facility, dubbed ‘ONE Circle’, which is intended to support up to 20 GWh of annual production capacity when ramped up.

The ‘City 45 Electric’, based on the Mercedes ‘Sprinter’ van, is a 7.4-metre vehicle with seating for up to 20 passengers.

The ‘eTGX’ and ‘eTGS’ are a continuation of the longstanding TG-range of trucks, with electric drivelines that will reportedly deliver up to 800 kilometres of range.

TAM’s battery electric city bus range, called ‘Véro’, is available in 7 metres and 10 metres.

Phoenix Motor’s retrofit kit is designed for medium-duty vehicles, similar to the Class 4-5 vehicles which make up the company’s current product portfolio.

The eO500U chassis has been developed entirely by Mercedes-Benz do Brasil in Campinas, Brazil, where Daimler Truck's World Competence Center is located for the development of bus chassis.

The truck was driven by an internal combustion engine fitted with Westport’s ‘H2 HPDI’ system, which enables it to run optimally with hydrogen fuel instead of diesel.
