Dakar Rally to see its first hydrogen truck entry
Dakar 2022 will be taking place in Saudi Arabia January 2-14 with an introductory short rally on day one followed by 12 grueling long-distance races with a total distance close to 5,000 mi. This year there might be good reason to watch the rally as there will be a hydrogen truck entry by Gaussin with sponsorship by Aramco.
Gaussin, a French manufacturer of zero emissions vehicles for the transport and logistics sector, has prepared a unique entry into the Dakar race with its class 8 hydrogen truck designed by Pininfarina. Gaussin’s H2 Racing Truck will run as an experimental new energy vehicle and the only truck in the alternative energy category for the Dakar. Gaussin is a 140-year-old public company led by Christophe Gaussin, a fifth-generation member of the family that originally founded the company.
Gaussin considers itself an enabler, trailblazer, and innovator in clean transportation and the best way to show this energy and resolve would be to bring hydrogen technology to the market with a bang. Well, building and entering a hydrogen truck for Dakar rally will do that. Gaussin believes that the time to showcase heavy duty hydrogen is already here.
