Nick BlakeSales EngineeringCommercial Vehicles The Future in Motion
The Future in Motion • What influences transport • Energy resources & demand • The future in Transport & Fuels • Alternative Powertrains • Daimler AG - some developments Alternative fuels and Drive trains
Mobility is influenced by: Society Politics and legislation Energy supply Traffic Alternative fuels and Drive trains
The Competition and Companies are measured by the concepts, vehicles and propulsion system solutions that they adopt to meet the requirements for sustainable mobility. Alternative fuels and Drive trains
Five steps towards the "Future in Motion" Today Tomorrow Fuel Cell Vehicles Hybrid & Electric Vehicles CO2-neutral Bio Fuels Improvement of Conventional Fuel Natural Gas Optimization of Combustion Engines • Maximisation of efficiency, minimisation or elimination of emissions Alternative fuels and Drive trains
The Alternative Drivetrain Roadmap Natural Gas Technology Natural gas is considered an alternative to Gasoline and Diesel Hybrid Drive Technology Hybrid technology brings together unique benefits to the customer comfort & driving experience whilst meeting the high environmental standards of the future Electric Drive Technology Electric Drive technology delivers zero tail pipe emissions which can greatly enhance the air quality of cities. Electricity production is not without it’s own CO2 emissions Fuel Cell Technology Fuel cell technology can smooth the way into a new era ofmobility with zero tail pipe emission vehicles Alternative fuels and Drive trains

Battery technology is not sufficiently advanced to drive long distance trucks under electric power alone! Why not purely electric? Range Diesel 100% electric with Li-Ion battery 100 litres 85 kg 2,6 m3 5,2 t 26 m 3 52t 990 litres 836 kg Calculation: consumption: 20 l/100 km /33 l/100 km, efficiency: diesel engine = 40%, electric motor = 80%, energy content: diesel = 11.8 kWh/kg, Li-Ion battery = 0.19 kWh/kg, weight: diesel = 0.845 kg/l, Li-Ion battery = 2 kg/l Alternative fuels and Drive trains
New Sprinter proposal using Parallel Hybrid drive technology Transfer of the hybrid drive results into the New Sprinter from 2006 onwards Further 30 hybrid evaluation vehicles are in under test in Germany and the US. UK market launch planned 2012 Alternative fuels and Drive trains
Benefits of Hybrid Technology • Hybrid technology brings together unique benefits to the customer and meets the high environmental standards of the future • Reduction in fuel consumption = increase in range • Regeneration (recharging the battery using regenerative braking) • Possibility of electric only operation Urban traffic, Manoeuvring, Parking, etc) • No emissions when stationary (if stop start fitted) • Quick response immediate starting torque • Continuous, smooth torque characteristics • Option of connecting internal/external electrical loads (extra air conditioning when stationary) • Boost function Short term torque increase (overtaking) Alternative fuels and Drive trains
