Hunt Transport, Inc. to Pilot Complete Solution on Dedicated Routes\n\n\nLISLE, Ill., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- In collaboration with General Motors and OneH2, Navistar, Inc., a subsidiary of Navistar International Corporation (NYSE: NAV), is introducing a complete solution for customer implementation of a zero-emission long-haul system, which will be initially piloted by J.B. Hunt Transport, Inc., a subsidiary of J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: JBHT). \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\"Hydrogen fuel cells offer great promise for heavy duty trucks in applications requiring a higher density of energy, fast refueling and additional range,\" said Persio Lisboa, Navistar president and CEO. \"We are excited to provide customers with added flexibility through a new hydrogen truck ecosystem that combines our vehicles with the hydrogen fuel cell technology of General Motors and the modular, mobile and scalable hydrogen production and fueling capabilities of OneH2. And we are very pleased that our valued customer J.B. Hunt has committed to utilize the solution on dedicated routes and to share key learnings.\"\nNavistar plans to make its first production model International® RH™ Series fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) commercially available in model year 2024. Test vehicles are expected to begin the pilot phase under the new, complete solution at the end of 2022. The integrated solution will be competitive with other powertrain offerings with a target range of 500+ miles and a hydrogen fueling time of less than 15 minutes. \nThe International® RHTM Series FCEV will get its energy from two GM Hydrotec fuel cell power cubes. Each Hydrotec power cube contains 300-plus hydrogen fuel cells along with thermal and power management systems. They are compact and easy to package into many different applications. \nThe combined propulsion system within the International® RHTM Series FCEV will feature better power density for short-range travel, better short-burst kW output and a per-mile cost expected to be comparable to diesel in certain market segments. \n\"GM's vision of a world with zero emissions ...
