Summary

Based on experiences with electrified Refuse Collection Vehicles (RCVs) FAUN has started to develop a range of heavy duty vehicle chassis with full electric drive trains. Due to very different load profiles from RCV operation to long haul traffic the electric system is defined as a refurbish able electric basic version with options to add power and range according to the requirements of customers.
