Hyundai Motor Company and IVECO Charge Ahead with Revolutionary Electric Commercial Vehicle at IAA Transportation 2024
SEOUL / HANNOVER, September 16, 2024 – Hyundai Motor Company is set to debut the first vehicle from its global eLCV platform for European markets in partnership with IVECO Group. The revolutionary electric vehicle will be marketed in Europe, under the IVECO-badged named ‘eMoovy’.
The unveiling is taking place at the ‘IAA Transportation 2024’ event, running from September 17 to 22 in Hannover, Germany.
The eMoovy combines Hyundai’s EV chassis-cab-based platform with IVECO’s cargo compartment. It is equipped with Hyundai’s proven power electric system, carried over from Hyundai Motor Group’s largest electric SUV. The new vehicle also boasts an 800V system for ultra-fast charging, with a maximum range of up to 320 km in WLTP cycle per charge. The charging experience is ultra-fast, taking just 10 minutes to provide additional 100 km of range.
Safety is a key attribute. It includes a smart battery management system (BMS) with large-capacity batteries compared to electric light commercial vehicles in the same class (76.1 kWh). Sensors detect battery information to prevent malfunctions and maintain a safe condition. This BMS is also utilized in Hyundai’s acclaimed IONIQ EV lineup and premium Genesis brand.
The eMoovy also offers vehicle-to-load (V2L) functions specialized for multi-purpose vehicles (MPV), providing electric power both inside and outside the vehicle for enhanced convenience.
The low-profile design is ideal for logistics and delivery operators, with low ground clearance to maximize cargo bin capacity and improve operator mobility. It represents a future-proof business platform that provides innovative solutions to customers as part of an industrial ecosystem.
The interior design of the eMoovy is based on Hyundai’s flagship MPV model, STARIA, and is equipped with driver convenience features and a spacious driving information display. The vehicle also includes various advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), such as Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Departure Prevention Assist and Parking Distance Warning.
“This innovative vehicle showcases Hyundai and IVECO’s shared commitment towards a carbon-neutral future,” said Ken Ramírez, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Commercial Vehicle & Hydrogen Business at Hyundai Motor Company. “By leveraging Hyundai’s pioneering global eLCV platform, we aim to advance EV mobility technology with IVECO’s European expertise to position eMoovy as the leading transport platform that can transform the market.”
“The eMoovy is the first completely new vehicle born from our partnership with Hyundai, a testament to our shared commitment to zero-emission mobility. With the eMoovy, we further expand our electric propulsion offerings, entering a new segment to provide our customers with a broader choice of effective solutions to support their energy transition and enhance their business operations. This launch represents a further step forward in our partnership, as we continue to leverage our respective know-how and advanced technologies to drive progress towards our shared objective of accelerating the transition to net zero carbon” commented Luca Sra, President Truck Business Unit, Iveco Group.
Hyundai and IVECO are committed to accelerating the eco-friendly CV transition and building competitiveness by creating innovative solutions in the rapidly changing commercial vehicle market. Since their partnership’s inception in 2022, Hyundai and IVECO have made significant strides. They unveiled the first IVECO eDaily fuel cell electric vehicle at IAA Transportation 2022, followed by the IVECO BUS E-WAY H2 at Busworld 2023. In 2024, they announced a supply agreement for an IVECO-badged eLCV for Europe, based on Hyundai’s eLCV platform, and signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to explore electric heavy-duty truck solutions for European markets.
As part of the International Automobile Exhibition (Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung) framework, IAA Transportation focuses on logistics, CVs and the transportation sector, and it takes place in Hannover, Germany, in even-numbered years. Hyundai has participated in IAA events since 2021, introducing a variety of battery-electric and fuel-cell electric vehicles and technologies.
