PACCAR (PCAR) to Showcase 3 Next-Gen Vehicles at CES 2020
Read MoreHide Full Article
PACCAR Inc. (PCAR - Free Report) will exhibit three autonomous and alternative powertrain commercial vehicles, namely a level 4 autonomous Kenworth T680, a battery-electric Peterbilt model 520EV and a battery-electric Kenworth K270E, at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Peterbilt and Kenworth, subsidiaries of PACCAR, have designed these trucks for a range of customer applications, including over-the-road goods transportation, refuse collection and urban distribution.
While the Kenworth T680 autonomous truck shows PACCAR's commitment to the advancement of self-driving commercial vehicles, the battery-electric Peterbilt model 520EV trucks gather waste on residential and commercial roads, running on a single charge for a full day. Currently, model 520EV trucks are being field tested by customers and delivery of the same is expected in 2021.
Further, the Kenworth K270E battery-electric vehicle is a medium-duty commercial vehicle, with a range of 100 to 200 miles, ideal for local pick-up and delivery operations. Kenworth expects to deliver these trucks to customers in 2020.
PACCAR invests in next-generation technology across its range of industry-leading transport solutions that are environmentally friendly and at the same time, improve customers’ operations.
Meanwhile, Peterbilt also announced its partnership with Dana Incorporated (DAN - Free Report) , in order to produce electric powertrains for Peterbilt Model 220EV battery electric vehicles.
In its 220EV chassis, Peterbilt will integrate the Spicer Electrified e-propulsion system from Dana. The truck will feature a range of 100 to 200 miles, with two battery packs and an on-board charger. These ultra-modern battery packs can be recharged in about an hour using the DC-fast-charging system of the vehicle, making the 220EV suitable for local pick-up and delivery, as well as short regional haul operations.
PACCAR is well positioned in key markets on the back of R&D and capex investments, and a strong cash flow which has enabled the company to invest $6.6 billion in new and expanded facilities, innovative products and new technologies in the past decade.
