MAN's hTGX Hydrogen Combustion Truck Wins Truck Innovation Award
Key Ideas
  • MAN's hTGX hydrogen combustion truck wins Truck Innovation Award for advancing zero-emission transport in the commercial vehicle industry.
  • The hydrogen combustion technology in the hTGX offers longer ranges and faster refuelling times, making it a practical solution for long-haul freight.
  • The hTGX maintains operational advantages of conventional HGVs while significantly reducing CO2 emissions, aligning with the push for decarbonisation in road freight transport.
  • The UK's logistics sector sees potential in MAN's hTGX for meeting emissions regulations, thanks to its long-range capabilities and quick refuelling times.
MAN has been awarded the highly prestigious Truck Innovation Award for its hTGX hydrogen combustion truck, a milestone development in achieving zero-emission transport. The hydrogen combustion technology in the hTGX is being lauded for its ability to offer longer ranges and faster refuelling times compared to traditional battery-electric trucks, making it a practical solution for sectors like haulage. Unlike hydrogen fuel cells, the hTGX features a hydrogen combustion engine, reducing CO2 emissions while maintaining power and range. The truck, part of MAN's TGX range, combines cutting-edge technology with robust performance, delivering powerful performance with fewer emissions. The hTGX has the potential to revolutionize long-haul routes, offering ranges of up to 800 kilometers with minimal environmental impact. The Truck Innovation Award recognizes MAN's innovative approach to decarbonizing freight transport without compromising operational capabilities. In the UK, the hTGX is seen as a promising solution to meet stringent emissions regulations, thanks to its long-range capabilities and quick refuelling times, essential for operational efficiency in the logistics sector.
