🌍✨ MAHLE introduces a new range extender engine and a rare earth-free electric motor

Why we’re watching: Automotive supplier MAHLE has developed a range extender system for heavy-duty trucks that packages a combustion engine and a generator into part of the space an electric truck’s battery would normally occupy.

The system is designed to replace about one-third of the battery capacity of a typical electric truck with a compact diesel engine. 💚

The assembly is a self-contained unit: the generator, engine, thermal and fluid management, fuel tank, AdBlue tank and exhaust treatment sit inside one box that drops into existing battery-electric platforms.
