The new model will expand the Iveco Bus zero-emission solutions for cities, a range that already includes last generation Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs).
The E-Way H2 is a 12-meter-long low-floor city bus equipped with a 310-kW e-motor and a fuel cell system provided by HTWO, a fuel cell system-based hydrogen business brand of Hyundai Motor Group. With four tanks offering a combined storage of 7.8 kg of hydrogen and one 69 kWh battery pack by FPT Industrial, Iveco’s brand specialised in powertrain technologies, the vehicle offers a driving range of 450 km under normal operating conditions.
The E-way H2 allows for both hydrogen refueling and plug-in battery charging. According to iveco, this hybrid mid-power concept not only optimises the way the vehicle is charged, but also helps the on-board battery pack and fuel cell system to achieve their highest efficiency and durability.
The E-Way H2 will be produced in the Iveco Bus plants in Annonay, France, and Foggia, Italy.
