Do more on a single charge
The Peterbilt Model 520EV is designed as a zero emissions commercial and residential refuse solution.
It can handle up to 1,100 trash bins on a single charge.
The 520EV utilizes regenerative braking, which allows frequent stops to benefit the vehicle.
During each stop, the Model 520EV transfers energy into its battery packs, resulting in an extended operating range and reduced brake pad wear.
The perfect combination of power and efficiency
The Model 520EV features a powertrain that combines power and efficiency.
Instead of an engine, the 520EV is powered by batteries that drive the e-axles.
The e-axles are equipped with two-speed gearing and a 2:1 hub reduction, enabling excellent start-ability and efficient cruising.
Regenerative braking is utilized to recharge the batteries, maximizing the 520EV’s range.
The engine cradle area, which typically houses the engine, contains various components such as power electronics, battery disconnect controls, on-board vehicle AC charger, cab heater and air compressor.
