Hyliion and Cummins are partnering to optimize the Cummins pure fuel engine because the generator for the Hyliion Hypertruck ERX powertrain (earlier put up). The Hyliion Hypertruck ERX is an electrical vary extender semi-truck powertrain resolution utilizing onboard energy era to recharge the batteries.
Collectively the businesses plan to acquire key environmental certifications for Cummins’ pure fuel inside combustion engines for use in Hyliion’s Hypertruck ERX powertrain.
The Hyliion Hypertruck ERX provides 75-miles of electrical vary to qualify for credit beneath CARB’s upcoming ZEV mandates and may obtain as much as 1,000 miles of full vary by way of the generator, enormously lowering vary anxiousness. Cummins’ ISX12N (earlier put up) will probably be optimized with the Hyliion Hypertruck ERX, in order that it could possibly use the present 700 pure fuel stations throughout North America for low-cost refueling.
The ISX12N meets California ARB non-obligatory Low NOx commonplace of 0.02 g/bhp-hr, a 90% discount from engines working on the present EPA NOx restrict of 0.2 g/bhp-hr.
Begin of manufacturing for the Hypertruck ERX with the ISX12N Cummins pure fuel energy is anticipated to start in late 2023.
