We can’t wait for ACT Expo next week! Come visit us at Booth #3000! With a focus on advanced clean technologies, alternative fuels, and transformative strategies, ACT Expo 2024 promises to be a catalyst for positive change in the transportation landscape. We are excited to explore the latest trends, discover new solutions, and engage in meaningful discussions on how we can help fleet managers transition to zero emission vehicles. #ACTExpo2024 #ACTExpo #zeroemission #fleetmanagement

As the automotive industry swiftly transforms, spearheaded by the need of alternative fuel vehicles driving us toward a more environmentally sustainable future, OMEC evolves in sync with this dynamic landscape. In January 2024, Europe experienced an impressive 23.5% surge in the adoption of eco-friendly vehicles, with hybrids notably taking the spotlight, showcasing a substantial growth rate of 21.4%. At OMEC, we're proud to be aligned with this sustainability-driven trend by offering a diverse range of products that satisfy such demand. #OMEC #AutomotiveIndustry #Automotiveaftermarket

At this week’s IAA TRANSPORTATION 2024, the decarbonization of road freight #transportation is the focus of our #TRATON brand appearances.🌱 Under the motto "Simplifying Business", MAN Truck & Bus SE presents its portfolio and celebrates the world premiere of its #BatteryElectric 12-ton eTGL. 🚛 With the addition of this light distribution #transport truck, MAN now offers a complete #electric portfolio from 12 to 50 tons.With a range of up to 235 kilometers, fast charging in around 30 minutes and a payload of up to 6,600 kilograms, it offers the ideal combination for quiet and locally CO2 -free transport in urban goods logistics for food chains, retailers or the catering industry.🔌 The "heavy" brothers of the eTGL, the 18- to 28-ton MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS, are also on display. For the first time, MAN is also presenting a battery layout with a seventh high-voltage battery for the MAN eTGX 6x2 chassis. This additional battery significantly extends the range, allowing for about 650 km without recharging, depending on driving habits.🔋 The MAN eTGX and MAN eTGS are gearing up for the upcoming MCS megawatt charging standard with a capacity of up to 1.000 kW. This allows recharging during the driver's rest period. ⚡️ There's still time before Sunday, September 22. September, to visit the booth of MAN in Hall 12, booth C04. #TransformingTransportationTogether #TRATONElectrifies #Technology #Sustainability

🚛 Exciting Innovation Alert! MAN Truck & Bus SE is set to revolutionize the commercial vehicle market by launching the first small series of hydrogen-combustion trucks in Europe. Scheduled for 2025, this pioneering initiative will roll out approximately 200 MAN hTGX trucks across Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Iceland, and selected non-European markets. 🌍 With a commitment to zero-emission technology, the MAN hTGX is tailored for heavy-duty applications such as construction, tank transport, and logging. This makes it an ideal solution for regions lacking adequate charging infrastructure or where hydrogen is readily available. 🔋 The trucks will feature 6x2 and 6x4 axle configurations, designed to maximize payload and achieve ranges of up to 600 kilometers. Powered by the robust H45 hydrogen combustion engine (383 kW/520 hp), these vehicles promise eco-friendly performance without the long downtimes—refueling takes less than 15 minutes! 🌱 As we look forward to a more sustainable future in transportation, innovations like these are pivotal in advancing climate neutrality goals. Join us at IAA TRANSPORTATION 2024 to explore more groundbreaking developments in the logistics and transportation industry. #IAATransportation2024 #SustainableMobility #HydrogenPower #ZeroEmissions #Innovation #MANTruckAndBus Photo Credit: MAN Truck & Bus SE

The first road tests in Belgium of the new ATX URBANIZED platform begin in the coming days. This is an urban electric vehicle prototype manufactured by ALKE in partnership with 8 European partners: Applus+ IDIADA, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, TNO, bpost, Bax & Company, Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH), Vitesco Technologies and CLEPA - European Association of Automotive Suppliers in the context of the European project URBANIZED supported by the EU Commission. This new platform aims for safety standards never seen before in similar compact vehicles (4 stars Euro NCAP), integrates 4 levels of cloud-monitored eco-functions (eco-driving, eco-comfort, eco-charging and eco-routing), is designed to integrate a modular swap-body based cargo area system, and much more. Tests in the coming weeks will be conducted by BPOST in the streets of the capital city of Brussels adding this vehicle into its logistics fleet. After 3 years of research and development, the results of this joint work, which aims to introduce groundbreaking innovations in the urban electric vehicle segment, are finally materialized. #UrbanizedProject #AlkeElectricVehicles #H2020 #HorizonEurope #EU

🌍 Join us at #TRA2024 for Special Session 5.2: Decarbonizing Freight Transport and Logistics by Increasing the Use of Waterways to learn more about how the logistics community can benefit from the autonomous vessels of FOREMAST and Autoship H2020. This session will focus on the role of inland waterway transport (IWT) and short sea shipping (SSS) in the decarbonisation of freight transport and logistics by integrating automated transport solutions into the logistics chains of SSS and IWT. The session will delve into the pressing need for increased adoption of IWT and SSS to meet the rising transport volumes, with an expected increase of 25% by 2030 and 50% by 2050. These modes of transport are essential to achieving the goals set out in the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, offering a greener alternative to traditional freight methods. 📅 Date: Wednesday, 17 April 2024 ⏰ Time: 2:30 PM - 3:45 PM 📍 Location: Hall 8A-2, Simmonscourt Looking forward to seeing you there! With Gabriel Mialocq, Marco Molica Colella, Jorge Miguel Lara López, Cyril Alias and myself.  ALICE, Alliance for Logistics Innovation through Collaboration in Europe (ETP LOGISTICS) #Decarbonization #SustainableLogistics #InlandWaterways #ShortSeaShipping
