| Abstract(E) | In different markets, commercial vehicle manufacturers face increasingly stringent CO₂ regulations. Today, there are viable use cases for battery-electric trucks (BEVs), particularly when cost-effective charging at depots is possible. However, operational flexibility remains limited: public charging infrastructure is often unavailable, impractical in dense metropoles such as those in Japan, or expensive in terms of cost per kWh. This presentation introduces a diesel-based industrial range extender (REX) integrated into a BEV truck as a bridging solution. Diesel offers efficiency, durability, and logistical compatibility for this application. Nevertheless, its role as a range extender requires targeted modifications to achieve maximum efficiency across relevant mission profiles while ensuring the most compact packaging. The publication will address the dedicated engine design for REX applications as well as key aspects of vehicle integration. |
