HVS' second test vehicle, X2.0, was put through its paces on the test track, delivering the very first trailer pull. Powered by green hydrogen, according to the British hydrogen truck manufacturer, the X2.0 "didn’t disappoint with excellent performance on its very first test run on the high-speed tr...

Hydrogen truck designer and manufacturer HVS has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with Mannok Build Ltd to explore the integration of its Hydrogen Fuel Cell HGVs into the Mannok fleet. The latter is renowned for its manufacturing and service excellence in the UK and Ireland.

PNDC will be carrying out performance testing of the chosen fuel cell as part of a £15 million grant-funded project from the UK government’s Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC). The vehicle will be used as a static testbed to evaluate and characterise the electrical and thermal performance of the onboa...

“We’re offering maximum modularity within a single base vehicle platform, and we would never have been able to achieve this level of flexibility and optimisation with a diesel-powertrain derived vehicle design", said Pete Clarke, Head of Design at HVS. "Our vehicles have been created for a fundament...

X1.5, powered by the same state-of-the-art hydrogen fuel cell as will be used in the production HGVs, will be used for functionality and systems development, including dyno-rig testing, and is an important precursor to track testing prototypes that will quickly follow.

Welcoming a letter, signed by over 40 leading companies such as Nestle, Pepsico, and Nike sent to the EU last week, which has called for more ambitious CO2 standards, plus a clear date for 100% of new trucks to be zero emission, HVS believes simply setting carbon reduction targets without accompanyi...
