The new XC13 successfully combines performance, emissions goals, reliability, and everyday needs. Being the first FPT Industrial multi-fuel single base engine means it is compatible with a wide range of market requirements, with limited impact on vehicle installation. The diesel version presented in Barcelona delivers best-in-class power and torque up to 580 hp @ 2,800 Nm, and best in class braking power up to 530 kW @ 2,300 rpm. A 10% weight reduction vs previous generation is realized thanks to the new cylinder head and block materials.
New technology includes a unique turbocharger design with divided flow for the diesel version which, with proprietary FPT Industrial software, improved combustion efficiency and reduced friction of the engine components, allowing the attainment of both performance and sustainability benefits. The XC13 is already available in diesel and methane versions, with future provision for hydrogen technology. A primary contributor to achieving the 2025 fleet-wide CO2 emission target, the XC13, together with aerodynamics, driveline and GPS predictive drive improvements, delivers up to 10% reduction of CO2 emissions and is ready for next generation emission challenges.

eBS 37 EVO BATTERY PACK FOR LCVs + eCD 140 CENTRAL DRIVE - HIGH ENERGY, FULL DYNAMISM

The 37kWh eBS 37 EVO battery pack for LCVs is a high-voltage battery with high energy density of up to 140Wh/kg and fast charging/discharging time. The multipack option allows for high flexibility and makes it possible to fit several applications. High performance and efficiency, to deliver max traction power to electric vehicles, are coupled with top reliability and durability. This maintenance-free battery pack is designed for over 2,500 charging/discharging cycles and is offered with up to eight years´ warranty according to mission profile. New class-leading safety features (ECE R100.3) complete the picture.

The eCD 140 Central Drive is a compact and complete solution for integrating electric drive systems into existing conventional vehicles architecture with optimized residual space for installation of battery packs. For rear-wheel drive applications, as with all FPT Industrial products, the eCD 140 is extremely durable, efficient and reliable with up to 350,000 km lifetime.

The eBS 37 battery model is also at the center of a new partnership between FPT Industrial and Reefilla, an innovative Turin-based startup offering the first predictive mobile charging service for commercial fleets and private users. The pilot project aims to give a second life to batteries from electric commercial vehicles and minibuses. eBS 37 batteries no longer suitable for powering electric traction will be delivered to Reefilla, which will recover the batteries´ modules and over 50% of their internal components. The components will then be installed in Reefilla´s Fillee mobile power banks, for use in recharging its clients´ electric vehicles.

eAX 840 - HIGH PERFORMANCE, HIGH EFFICIENCY, HEAVY DUTY

Launched in the US in 2022, as the first integrated eAxle for Heavy Duty Vehicles and realized from scratch to production in just two years, the eAX 840-R is now available for the European electric heavy commercial vehicles market.
