The Masaccio’s cutting-edge hybrid technology allows the train to seamlessly draw from battery, electric, hybrid and diesel power.
- The Masaccio’s cutting-edge hybrid technology allows the train to seamlessly draw from battery, electric, hybrid and diesel power.
- By running on battery power when traveling through non-electrified urban areas, the train can eliminate emissions, including harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx), while also reducing noise pollution.
- Debuted at Innotrans 2022 in Berlin, the Masaccio platform has been designed to be suitable for railways across Europe.
- “With around 40% of regional lines across the continent remaining un-electrified, battery hybrid technology can have an immediate impact.
