hylane’s rental model enables straightforward deployment for the Bosch plant in Nuremberg. The Iveco vehicle is equipped with Bosch’s Fuel Cell Power Module (FCPM). The truck not only reduces emissions, but also collects data for the further development of fuel cell technology.
The vehicle is a 40-tonne Iveco truck with a Bosch Fuel Cell Power Module (FCPM). The combination is ‘Made in Germany’ technology: the truck was produced in Ulm, and the fuel cell drive system at the Bosch plant in Stuttgart-Feuerbach. The vehicle has a range of up to 800 kilometres. The five hydrogen tanks installed can hold up to 70 kilograms at a pressure of 700 bar. The fuel cell system delivers an output of over 200 kilowatts and powers an electric axle. Two battery packs serve as energy buffers. The truck’s system output is 400 kilowatts, and its gross vehicle weight is up to 44 tonnes.
The Iveco truck with Bosch fuel cell is operated by the Schäflein freight forwarding company on behalf of the Bosch plant. Schäflein, in turn, rents the vehicle from hylane. The truck is expected to cover around 12,000 kilometres per year and is used on fixed routes. Here, it is mainly used to transport products from the Bosch plant in Nuremberg.
