The chassis licence agreement with mobility technology company Magna follows the launch of Gaussin’s hydrogen-propelled vehicles for port terminals and logistics hubs.
“Magna will grant Gaussin an exclusive worldwide license for its modular, ultra-light and versatile chassis for electric (BEV) and hydrogen (FCEV) on-road heavy-duty truck applications,” said the engineering company.
Strengthening GAUSSIN’s activities in clean mobility, this exclusive agreement covers the development, manufacture, assembly and commercialisation of new chassis for mass-produced electric and/or hydrogen-powered heavy road vehicles.
Gaussin’s APM-H2 is dedicated to moving containers on port terminals and capable of pulling over 75t. The company has also developed the ATM-H2, intended for logistics hubs and with a towing capacity of 38t. These vehicles are equipped with hydrogen powerpacks.
In addition to the integration of all types of new generations of batteries and hydrogen, Gaussin is focusing autonomous technologies to advance the use of driverless vehicles.
