Daimler Trucks North America is tapping into the expertise of engineering researchers at Oregon State University to develop zero-emissions technology for the SuperTruck 3 project.
A demonstrator truck designed to maximize freight efficiency, Peterbilt’s SuperTruck II, made its debut at the American Trucking Associations’ Management Conference & Exhibition in San Diego.
Gains in heavy-truck fuel efficiency and overall freight efficiency realized through the first SuperTruck program smashed the original goals and expectations. SuperTruck II’s goals are even more ambitious. Will they be realized too?
As OEMs get ready to unveil their SuperTruck II projects, Daimler explains how engineers and designers collaborated on the project.
The Department of Energy is helping to fund five projects that will develop demonstration vehicles to help accelerate medium- and heavy-duty electrification technologies.
The Department of Energy recognized the Cummins SuperTruck II team for achieving 55% brake thermal efficiency from an engine equipped with waste heat recovery.
The Department of Energy's SuperTruck 3 program will provide funding for research and development of electric and fuel-cell trucks, including a broader range of vehicles than the tractor-trailers in the first two programs.
The North American Council for Freight Efficiency has released its latest Confidence Reports, including one that delves into the intentional pairing of tractors and trailers for optimal fuel economy benefits and another that updates findings on idling practices.
Eaton has announced that it is contributing several components to truck manufacturers participating in the U.S. Department of Energy’s SuperTruck II freight-efficiency program.
SuperTrucks have been called a waste of taxpayer money or government-funded marketing. Executive Contributing Editor Rolf Lockwood might disagree.
