Electric commercial vehicle company Cenntro announced the development of its second-generation hydrogen fuel cell Class 8 semi-tractor, the BM860H. The vehicle has received certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, according to a news release.
Developed by Cenntro’s wholly owned subsidiary, Bison Motors, the BM860H builds on the foundation of its predecessor with performance enhancements, the company claims.
The vehicle is powered by a 210 kW hydrogen fuel cell system and provides an estimated driving range of up to 528 miles (about 850 km) with a full payload, according to a release. The vehicle features rapid refueling capabilities while producing zero emissions.
The BM860H meets all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards while certification from the California Air Resources Board is under review.
Cenntro plans for key components for the BM860H to be sourced primarily from U.S.-based manufacturers, with final assembly taking place at Cenntro’s production facility in Southern California.
