Hyliion’s Hybrid Diesel system can reduce fuel usage, decrease
greenhouse gas emissions, improve performance and reduce operating
costs for today’s leading commercial fleets and brands. It is
designed to be installed on most major Class 8 commercial
vehicles.
“Working with industry leaders like Idealease and Dana is
critical to introducing our technology to fleets throughout the
country,” said Thomas Healy, CEO and founder of Hyliion. “The
commercial transportation industry has reached a pivotal point
where environmental impact is paramount to business success. Our
hybrid system has the potential to transform diesel fleets,
offering an immediate, sustainable impact on a company’s carbon
footprint while delivering a positive return for their
business.”
Idealease’s national tour will continue through the end of 2020,
offering short-term rental agreements to Idealease customers
interested in evaluating Hyliion’s technology. The hybrid system is
installed on an International LT Series chassis and leverages
Dana’s latest lightweight, fuel-efficient S23-175 drive axle and
reliable SPL driveline, delivering optimal performance and
powertrain efficiency. It includes the Hyliion in-cab APU, which
provides additional fuel savings by eliminating vehicle idling when
picking up and delivering loads.
“Idealease is committed to equipping our customers with the
world’s leading technology that reduces operating costs while
reinforcing our commitment to building a more sustainable
commercial transportation industry,” said Andy McEnaney, vice
president of affiliate services at Idealease. “With Hyliion’s
hybrid system, we expect to see great results in fuel efficiency,
vehicle performance, cost savings and emissions reductions—all of
which are critical decision factors for our customers.”
