First vehicle transporter on battery-powered truck

PREMIERE: First vehicle transporter on electric truck soon to be in practical operation
Kässbohrer is developing the first purely electrically powered car transporter in cooperation with electrification specialist Designwerk Technologies AG (Futuricum) and Swiss logistics company Galliker Transport AG. For the family-owned company Galliker, "Green Logistics" is not an empty slogan, but a serious and comprehensive innovation programme. This includes appropriate pioneering work to convert the vehicle transporter to electric propulsion.
To this end, they have developed a technical solution with the partners Designwerk and Kässbohrer, with the aim of achieving a cruising range of around 500 kilometres and at the same time testing this drive technology in practical use. Designwerk will electrify a Volvo truck for this purpose. Kässbohrer will provide a complete truck / trailer combination. Galliker will test the truck in practical operation before the end of the year.
