The E-Mobility discussion is still focusing mainly on passenger cars but for the commercial vehicle it might even be as important as for passenger cars. There are big and important differences between passenger cars and commercial vehicles especially in market and costumer requirements which will be pointed out. An outlook in differences and characteristics on E-Mobility in commercial vehicles will be given. Examples and feedback on experiences will illustrate the possibilities in the different segments. The difficulty in establishing hybrids and e-mobility in commercial vehicle will be discussed up to the point if an evolution or revolution is necessary to have e-mobility widely accepted in this market of busses and trucks. The examples have shown that the different segments which different needs will require variants of e-mobility from hybrid to full electric. So several different approaches will be seen in the future - always depending on the benefit for the user/owner of the vehicles. But for each OEM it is essential to create a modular approach to fulfill costumer needs and still be able to create some volume of common parts / modules to handle such variety with not exploding costs. If regulations in future will require pure electric driving e.g. in specific city areas then plug-in hybrids or even full electric vehicles will be used to fulfill these regulations or specific requirement from costumer. Coming to the question if E-Mobility for commercial vehicles is an evolution or a revolution the answer needs to be that in the consequence for the costumer / user is a consequent and logical further improvement in reducing fuel consumption and emission including noise and needs to be possible to mainly handle like today. Of course it needs some adoption e.g. if considering opportunity charging of city e-buses in the future due to some rerouting. But for the OEMs it is more a revolution to handle beside today's technology of complex combustion engine and after treatment as well HV technologies with all consequences of handling it not only in R+D but as well in production and After Sales up to distributed service net to handle HV energy storage including recycling and other topics. And as mentioned it will be seen very different layouts and systems to fulfil the customer needs which means higher number of variants and complexities. Still to meet the cost targets a modular approach is needed and to take over solutions or better say parts or modules from passenger car will be the enabler and a must. But anyway these challenges have to be handled from today!
