Safe, Fast & Simple: Daimler Truck & Linde Engineering present sLH2, a jointly developed refueling technology for subcooled liquid hydrogen.

➡ Together we aim to establish #sLH2 as a common refueling standard for hydrogen-powered trucks & make the technology openly available to all interested parties via an ISO standard.

➡ Compared to gaseous #Hydrogen, subcooled #LiquidHydrogen (sLH2) allows for higher storage density, greater range, faster refueling, lower costs and superior energy efficiency.

➡ The first public sLH2 fuel station was inaugurated in Wörth am Rhein, Germany, & will also be used by selected logistics customers for initial customer trials with our Mercedes-Benz #GenH2 Truck from mid-2024.

Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 in winter service - Mercedes-Benz Trucks & Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes jointly tested our battery-electric #eActros 600 in demanding winter service at the beginning of February. ⭐🚛🔋

#Autobahn GmbH used a prototype of our #ElectricTruck on a section of the A2 highway between Hamm and Bielefeld with a semitrailer supplied by Epoke. As a preventive measure against ice, Autobahn GmbH used a brine made of water and salt as a more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional road salt. The semitrailer enables the spreading of brine at a speed of 80 km/h up to a width of 12 meters. 

Testing has shown that preventive spreading of brine in winter service operations can be mastered with electric trucks: https://dth.ag/WntrSrvc

When company Dasco Construction wanted ‘proper little trucks’ to replace less robust van-based vehicles, our FUSO #Canter stood up to the task. 🚚

The Canters are all 3.5-tonne 3C13 models, with Comfort cab and 2,500 mm wheelbases – one of six lengths available – and were fitted with aluminium tipping bodies at our Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation factory in Tramagal, Portugal. 🚚

Power comes from fuel-efficient 3.0-litre turbodiesel engines each producing 96 kW (130 hp) and 350 Nm of torque. The compact exhaust system means the vehicles also meet the EURO VI – STEP E emission standard. 🚚

Powering America’s Commercial Transportation (PACT), a coalition focused on education and advocacy for accelerating the construction of nationwide infrastructure for medium- and heavy-duty #ZeroEmission vehicles (ZEVs), launched this week in the United States with the express purpose of overcoming the many barriers delaying access to ZEV infrastructure and enhancing national climate policies to address infrastructure needs of medium- and heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles.

Travelling through time - a quick glance at these two cockpits points out how the interior of our #Unimog has evolved over the years: The picture above shows the interior of the Unimog 70200, which was already very impressive in the 1950s. Fast forward over 70 years - The new UNI-TOUCH system has given today's Unimog an operating system which is leaner, more flexible & fully-customisable. 

While it is characterised mainly by a new electronic architecture, hidden under the skin, the new #OperatingSystem results in a comprehensively revised centre console for the driver, which has a leaner design and can be moved sideways, forwards and back.
