Autonomous Trucks
The French special vehicle manufacturer Gaussin has placed an order for battery systems with Microvast. Different battery types can apparently be supplied within the contract: Microvast says it can “provide a wide range of different cell chemistries in its standard battery packs to meet varying performance, energy density and lifetime requirements”. Variability should indeed be an advantage, as the skateboard platform for trucks unveiled by Gaussin at the end of April can include battery-electric vehicles or fuel cell trucks. “The high modularity of Microvast batteries gives Gaussin great flexibility in vehicle design,” says Microvast. Microvast does not specify a range for the battery version.
