ZF begins producing CeTrax lite electric driveline
ZF says it has begun producing its CeTrax lite electric central driveline for light zero-emissions commercial vehicles.
Isuzu is the first truck maker to deploy the system, and orders have been received from Asia and the Americas, ZF announced. The company says the driveline is ideal for urban and last mile deliveries, and draws from the component manufacturer’s automotive lines.
“As an electric central drive, CeTrax lite allows our customers to electrify their existing vehicle platforms. This proves our technical approach and further demonstrates the trust customers are placing in our electric solutions,” said Winfried Gründler, head of product line for driveline systems with ZF’s Commercial Vehicle Solutions division.
“Designed for silent, emission-free inner-city and ‘last mile’ freight delivery, CeTrax lite provides leading levels of performance and efficiency. As such it represents an important new milestone in our ‘Next Generation Mobility’ strategy and reinforces our commitment to decarbonization of the industry.”
The driveline was designed for light commercial vehicles up to 7.5 tons, with a peak power output of 150 kW.
