pepper motion will participate in IAA Transportation, which will be held in Hanover in less than two weeks. The German specialist will introduce its electrification kit addressed to commercial vehicles, based on proprietary vehicle control unit (VCU), a system software architecture with which the entire vehicle can be reliably controlled to the automotive industry’s highest functional safety standard.

pepper motion at IAA: the core of its presence

pepper motion’s electrification kit is being used as a battery electric drive system in vehicles such as the Mercedes-Benz Actros MP3. pepper is displaying the converted popular semitrailer truck for distribution
transport of up to 26 tons at IAA. Also, the Mercedes-Benz Actros MP5 and the Mercedes-Benz Atego will also soon be available in series quality. pepper motion has recently announced a partnership shared with Ai-specialist driveblocks in view of self-driving truck development.

The German company is now also offering its electrification kits to OEMs and producers of specialist vehicles. The kits can be flexibly integrated into newly developed vehicles or existing vehicle series and
enable vehicle manufacturers to offer their customers proprietary zero-emission new vehicles without high development costs.

Promoting the whole environment

One of pepper’s proprietary concepts assists customers with overcoming the challenges of transitioning to zero-emission vehicles by providing them with an entire ecosystem. In different modules, it includes solutions for supplying green electricity at competitive prices, the necessary charging infrastructure at the customer depot, vehicles, and their operation (not including drivers), servicing and maintenance, as well as additional add-ons such as training and sustainability reports. As a result, existing vehicles and infrastructures can be retained and transformed in a risk-free manner.
