470 HEV, India's first Electric Tipper is setting new benchmarks in both performance and environmental stewardship.
Propel Industries,
India's fastest growing crushing equipment manufacturer, has reached a key
milestone. The electric heavy-duty Tipper, the 470 HEV, from the house of
Propel has received Homologation certification which is a document which
certifies that a vehicle is roadworthy and complies with the government's
safety standards.
Commenting
on the significant landmark, Mr. V. Senthil Kumar, Managing Director, Propel
Industries Private Limited said, “The electric heavy-duty
Tipper, the 470 HEV was initially manufactured for off-road applications.
Receiving the Homologation certification is a ground breaking achievement as it
reaffirms our commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering innovative
solutions that meet the evolving needs of the industry. Propel continues to
lead the way in eco-friendly transport, offering a sustainable solution for
both off-road and on-road applications. This certification comes as a
significant milestone in Electric Mobility for India's Mining and Construction
sector.”
The 470 HEV Tipper,
India's first smart electric heavy-duty Tipper, is available in two battery
variants—385 kWh and 256 kWh. Equipped with advanced battery options, it
delivers fast charging, regenerating braking and optimises energy efficiency
for demanding tasks. The truck's compact
turning radius and wheelbase allow for superior manoeuvrability, making it
ideal for both on-road and off-road conditions. This high-performance truck has
been engineered to handle even the toughest mining and construction challenges
while reducing environmental impact. Designed with a liquid-cooled motor,
clutch-less AMT transmission, ABS, and a noise-free cabin, it ensures enhanced
operator comfort and durability. The 470 HEV embodies environmental
responsibility with zero emissions, reduced noise levels, and asbestos-free
brake liners.
This latest milestone
highlights Propel Industries' dedication to revolutionizing electric mobility,
providing sustainable, high-performance equipment for mining and construction
sectors.
