Volvo Trucks va a iniciar la producci\u00f3n en serie de camiones el\u00e9ctricos en su planta belga de Gante, concretamente con los tres modelos pesados FH Electric, FM Electric y FMX Electric. Gante es la cuarta planta de Volvo Trucks que produce camiones el\u00e9ctricos de bater\u00eda.<\/p>\n
Breve rese\u00f1a: Todo empez\u00f3 en Blainville, Francia, donde Volvo comenz\u00f3 a fabricar camiones el\u00e9ctricos para la gesti\u00f3n de residuos y la distribuci\u00f3n urbana en 2019. Un a\u00f1o m\u00e1s tarde, la planta estadounidense de la empresa en New River Valley inici\u00f3 la producci\u00f3n en serie del VNR Electric, dise\u00f1ado para el transporte regional. Entonces, hace alrededor de un a\u00f1o<\/a>, la producci\u00f3n en serie de los FH Electric, FM Electric y FMX Electric comenz\u00f3 en Gotemburgo, Suecia.<\/p>\n Con la planta de Gante, Volvo Trucks inaugura su mayor centro de producci\u00f3n, con una capacidad anual de unos 45.000 camiones. All\u00ed, Volvo fabrica los camiones el\u00e9ctricos FH Electric, FM Electric y FMX Electric, que pueden funcionar con un peso total de 44 toneladas, en la misma l\u00ednea que sus camiones de combusti\u00f3n. Se trata de un concepto de producci\u00f3n an\u00e1logo al que se practica en Gotemburgo. Las bater\u00edas son suministradas por la planta de montaje de bater\u00edas en Gante<\/a>que se encuentra justo al lado de la planta de producci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n Los veh\u00edculos son las versiones el\u00e9ctricas de la \"gama de productos m\u00e1s importante\" de la empresa. Los tres modelos representaron alrededor de dos tercios de las ventas de la empresa, dijo el fabricante en un comunicado anterior. El tr\u00edo ha estado disponible para pedidos desde Mayo de 2022<\/a>. En total, Volvo Trucks est\u00e1 produciendo seis modelos de camiones el\u00e9ctricos en serie: los otros tres son las versiones el\u00e9ctricas de los modelos de cami\u00f3n de carga media Volvo FE y Volvo FL y el mencionado VNR para Norteam\u00e9rica.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Volvo Trucks est\u00e1 iniciando la producci\u00f3n en serie de camiones el\u00e9ctricos en su planta belga de Gante, concretamente con los tres modelos pesados FH Electric, FM Electric y FMX<\/p>","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":208375,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13094],"tags":[10202,3701,11274,23564,23565,23566,14278,22057,3907],"class_list":["post-208383","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-utility-vehicles","tag-belgium","tag-bev","tag-electric-trucks","tag-fh-electric","tag-fm-electric","tag-fmx-electric","tag-ghent","tag-volvo-group","tag-volvo-trucks"],"acf":{"inhalt_teil2":" According to Volvo Trucks, it has so far received orders and purchase intentions for around 6,000 electric trucks in 42 countries on six continents. However, the Swedish company does not differentiate between medium and heavy-duty units. A few weeks ago<\/a>, the Volvo Group published sales statistics for the first half of 2023.<\/p>\n “I’m thrilled! The Ghent factory is the largest one in our network, so this is a very important milestone. Now even more transport companies can go electric with Volvo,” said Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks. Just a few years ago, he says, many thought it was impossible to electrify heavy commercial vehicles. “But we decided early on that electrification is our main path to zero emissions. Now we can offer an industry-leading range of purpose-built electric trucks, in commercial operation all around the world,” Alm added, although he still sees a need for political action: “However, for the big electric shift to happen, governments need to act now and offer incentive programs for those who invest in the new technology, increase capacity in the power grid and also introduce CO2 taxes, to make sustainable transport more competitive.”<\/p>\n Volvo Group delivered a total of 1,442 electric trucks in the first half of 2023, up from 409 in the same period last year. However, the majority of these are not vehicles with the Volvo logo.<\/p>\n
