Quantron AG, a specialist in sustainable passenger and freight transport, and Ford Trucks, the global brand of the heavy commercial vehicle industry, have jointly signed a letter of intent (LOI). The focus of the collaboration lies in hydrogen fuel cell-powered heavy-duty trucks.

Through the first phase of collaboration with Ford Trucks, QUANTRON will ensure a seamless adaptation of Ford´s advanced trucks, which will be built in compliance with the new security regulations as early as Q124.

Michael Perschke, CEO of Quantron AG, stated: "Partnering with a renowned vehicle manufacturer like Ford Trucks enhances QUANTRON's position as an innovation leader in the field of sustainable transport solutions and being a partner for established Commercial Vehicle OEMs".

Rene Wollmann, CTO of Quantron AG said: "Our partners want to accelerate their development of fuel cell powered trucks while focusing their own resources on other areas. We are benchmarking the FCEV light vehicle segment up to 7.5 t, and in the FCEV heavy-duty segment up to 44 t. Our close technical collaboration will contribute to further accelerating the widespread market introduction of fuel cell-electric commercial vehicles."

The partnership solidifies QUANTRON's strong position as a pioneer in sustainable mobility and underscores both companies' commitment to a greener future in the transportation sector.

As such, Ford Trucks is committed to achieving zero emissions in heavy commercial vehicle production by 2040 to mitigate the effects of climate change.
