18-ton Battery Electric Water Truck With Our Electric Truck Axle

Introduction

This case highlights our collaboration with an EV manufacturer to deliver a highly efficient, 100% electric water truck. Specializing in municipal and specialty vehicles, the EV manufacturer serves an environmental resources company as their end customer. This innovative vehicle incorporates our advanced electric truck axle technology.

Application of Our Electric Truck Axle

Electric municipal vehicle water truck with our electric truck axle

Our electric truck axle utilizes the latest e-axle technology, featuring a distributed approach that offers numerous benefits including low noise, extended cruising range, intelligent control, energy efficiency, and high performance.

For instance, the 18-ton water truck in this project is equipped with a 231 kWh EV battery system. Thanks to the energy-saving and efficiency-boosting design, it achieves a cruising range comparable to a similar vehicle with a 280 kWh battery system. This allows up to 8 hours of operation on a single charge, significantly reducing costs for fleet operators.

More features about this water truck:

  • Gross vehicle mass: 18000 kg
  • Chassis curb weight: 9145 kg
  • Loading mass: 8660 kg
  • Maximum vehicle speed: 90 km/h
  • Motor type: PMSM

Versatility and Safety of Our Electric Truck Axle

Our electric drive axle is also suitable for heavy-duty trucks, tractors, and trailers. The distributed approach enhances safety redundancy, ensuring that even if one motor fails, the other can continue to operate normally. Advanced software technology further ensures vehicles’ safety and reliability. Learn more about our innovative e-axle solutions here.

Benefits of Upfit Electrification

We also provide electric motors for the upfit of specialty and hybrid vehicles, such as street sweepers, water trucks, and concrete mixers, etc. Upfit electrification separates the power source for retrofitting from the vehicle’s drive systems. This enables specialty vehicles like hybrid concrete mixers to shut off their engines during loading and unloading while maintaining retrofit operations. Drivers can also benefit from air conditioning in hot weather. For fleet operators, this significantly reduces annual fuel costs. Learn more about our electric motor solutions here.
