Pursuing our vision for net-carbon-negative commercial transportation is ambitious, real and achievable through our technology.

THE NATURAL (GAS) ADVANTAGE: A net-carbon-negative emissions solution for electrified trucks and commercial fleets, when using renewable natural gas.

Renewable natural gas is produced from biowaste, distributed through existing natural gas pipelines and purchased through established gas utility channels. It is widely available today and new sources are in development.

Ultimately, we believe that renewable natural gas offers commercial fleets with an attractive option to achieve carbon negative status.

EFFICIENTLY
ELECTRIC
Typical full EV solutions require a complex infrastructure and demand a lot from the grid.
The Hyliion Hypertruck ERX™ powertrain is an electric drivetrain Class 8 truck that recharges itself by efficient en route charging.

Strong
Acceleration

Outperforms a diesel truck to 60 mph, fully loaded at 80,000 lbs*. Machine learning continuously optimizes power output.

Superior
Efficiency

Using up to 100% RNG, Hypertruck ERX™ electric power generation is up to 35% less expensive than diesel on a miles per diesel equivalent gallon of fuel.

Fast Refuel &
Long Distance

Hypertruck ERX™ can be refueled as quickly as a diesel truck and can achieve comparable ranges as well, even when fully loaded at 80,000 lbs.*

Improved Payload
Capacity vs. BEV

Hypertruck ERX™ offers the greatest payload capacity when factoring in the increased gross vehicle weight allotments for natural gas commercial vehicles or the reduced engine weight. Fleets can haul more freight, not battery weight, enabling return on investment.
