The H2 Racing Truck® will land in
Genoa on March 10 before touring France, Belgium, and the United
States
GAUSSIN (EURONEXT GROWTH ALGAU - FR0013495298), a pioneer in
the clean and intelligent transport of goods and people, today
announced the world tour of its H2 Racing Truck®, the world's first
hydrogen-powered truck, which completed the Dakar Rally in Saudi
Arabia in January 2022. The H2 Racing Truck® will make stops in
several European countries starting in March, before crossing the
Atlantic to be exhibited throughout the United States in
April.
An international exhibition to showcase GAUSSIN's
expertise
After its successful run in the Dakar Rally in January 2022 in
Saudi Arabia, and a tour of the country that continued GAUSSIN's
Saudi journey, the H2 Racing Truck – the first hydrogen truck to
complete the storied and challenging rally – will be exhibited
internationally. "The interest in our truck is enormous, from
journalists, public authorities, connoisseurs of the challenges of
the energy transition, and above all from many industry players,
enthralled by our technology," says Christophe Gaussin, CEO of
the GAUSSIN Group.
The H2 Racing Truck is going to land in Europe:
- First in Genoa, Italy's largest port, on March 10
- Then, through France:
- in Paris from March 13-15. - at GAUSSIN's
headquarters in Héricourt, from March 17-28 during the Open Days
and Investor Days.
- In Toulon from March 23-24, where GAUSSIN will take part in the
Meet4Hydrogen event.
- Finally, in Zeebrugge, Belgium, one of the largest ports in
Europe, at the beginning of April.
The truck will then cross the Atlantic to be displayed in the
United States, where it will serve as a technological showcase for
GAUSSIN. It will be:
- in Baltimore, near Washington, from April 28.
- in Los Angeles from May 9-12 for the Advanced Clean
Transportation (ACT) Expo, in which GAUSSIN will participate.
The H2 Racing Truck will travel the country from coast to coast
and should pass through:
- Chicago
- Dallas
- Denver
- Las Vegas
- And finally, the legendary Route 66.
The truck will continue its international journey, including a
stop in Vancouver, Canada. This tour promises to be an opportunity
for the Group to strengthen its partnerships with American industry
players, with the aim of signing new licensing agreements.
During the various stages of the tour, spectators will be able
to take pictures of the H2 Racing Truck, meet the “co-pilots”, and
learn more about the technology of the hydrogen truck. The truck
will also be accompanied by other vehicles from the GAUSSIN range,
including the APM, the ATM and the Cit-e (ex-Bluebus).
A hydrogen truck with proven performance
The H2 Racing Truck, the most powerful 100% hydrogen and
electric racing truck ever built, performed an exceedingly
successful showcase at the 2022 Dakar Rally. It ran from the Red
Sea, in Jeddah, through the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia traversing to
Hail, Al Artawiyah, Al Qaisumah, Riyadh, Al Dawadimi, Wadi Ad
Dawasir, Bisha and returning in the final sprint of the race to
Jeddah, where it all began. The team for the H2 Racing Truck
consisted of a crew driven by a Dakar winner, Philippe Jacquot
pilot, and included Christophe GAUSSIN, CEO of GAUSSIN, as racing
team manager. This heavy class 8 truck was entered in the
experimental category of the Dakar 2022 for new clean energies. It
was designed for extreme environments and was intended to
demonstrate the performance and reliability of the
hydrogen-electric motorization developed by GAUSSIN.
The H2 Racing Truck is a showcase of GAUSSIN's latest
innovations. Unlike the solutions currently available on the
market, the implementation of the hydrogen system has been
developed on the basis of an ultra-light chassis, designed around
the hydrogen and electric powertrain and based on the modular
skateboard launched last April by GAUSSIN (see April 27, 2021 press
release). It is the precursor of GAUSSIN's new range of 100%
hydrogen and electric road trucks, designed by PININFARINA, which
will be marketed this year and of which it is the first model.
While obtaining the truck's registration to drive on European roads
was a first success, the H2 Racing Truck®'s successful run in the
Dakar Rally is an undeniable highlight for attracting new partners
and customers on the market. Winning new licensing agreements is
one of GAUSSIN's stated objectives in the context of its
participation in the Dakar, and several promising relationships
have been established during the race.
