MCS charging can successfully contribute towards sustainable long-distance transport for heavy-duty vehicles. To drive further progress in the sustainable transformation of this high emitting transport sector, Siemens has introduced a prototype of the SICHARGE Megawatt Charging System.

We're talking about the company's IeV4 electric light commercial vehicles, recently launched by Switch Mobility, the UK branch of Indian commercial vehicle manufacturer Ashok Leyland.

The trial involved a number of BEVs intended for distribution activities in the Milan area. In addition to evaluating their performance in terms of reliability and transport efficiency, the tests also analyzed the benefits the vehicles can bring in terms of environmental impact.

Developers from Mercedes-Benz Trucks successfully charged for the first time a prototype of the eActros 600, which was presented last year, at a charging station with an output of one megawatt at the in-house development and testing center in Wörth am Rhein.

RIZON will offer four model variants for Canadian customers, the e16L, e16M, e18L, and the e18M, with a versatile mix of configurations and options suitable for each customer’s unique requirements, ranging from 15,995 to 18,850 pounds in gross vehicle weight (GVW).

HVS have completed the initial build of the first of the prototype rigs at the Silverstone site, which will shortly be despatched to UTAC, Leyland for the initial rig testing. The build of several other APs is now underway.
