Daimler and Toyota Hino are two of the most important names in industrial trucking, and so they’ve simply signed an MOU with Mitsubishi Fuso that can see the acceleration of that corporate merging with Hino and the improvement of latest, complicated trucking tech (hydrogen).

Mitsubishi Fuso and Toyota’s Hino might be merged “as equals,” and collaborate within the spaces of business automobile building, portions procurement, and manufacturing. In combination, they’ll construct a globally aggressive Eastern industrial automobile producer that can, “make stronger the root of the Eastern and Asian car industries and contributing to their shoppers, stakeholders and society.”

For his or her portions, the executives of the 2 corporations appear surely hyped via the merger. Karl Deppen, the CEO of Mitsubishi Fuso, says, “This shut collaboration will permit us to boost up the decarbonization of the transportation business, growing a fair more potent Eastern industrial automobile producer.

“We at Daimler Truck are very happy with our merchandise, as a result of vans and buses stay the sector transferring,” says Martin Daum, CEO of Daimler Vans (who was once, I’m advised, the “speaking head” I referred to in my long-ish ACT screed a couple of weeks in the past). “Quickly, they are going to even accomplish that with 0 emissions. So there’s a nice long run forward — and lately’s announcement is a a very powerful step in making that long run paintings economically and in main sustainable transportation. The deliberate new corporate might be a significant drive in Southeast Asia and a very powerful affiliate of the Daimler Truck circle of relatives.”

The corporations’ MOU says that they intend to advertise the usage of environmentally pleasant automobiles and build up the worth of mobility on the planet’s social programs.

Main points at the scope and nature of the overall preparations stay unsure, however the events are promising the definitive  signing of agreements within the first quarter of 2024 and intention to near the transaction via finish of 2024. As soon as the events achieve an settlement, they are going to transfer ahead according to the approval of the related forums of administrators, shareholders, and government.

As for me? I could be a little bit of a cynic, however I’m now not certain I’m offered at the hydrogen love-in, and this turns out like extra of a political/lobbying transfer to advance that motive than this is a push in opposition to authentic environmentalism — however nobody requested me. What do you guys suppose? Scroll on right down to the feedback and tell us.
