Blue Energy Motors has achieved a significant milestone with the rollout and sale of its 500th LNG (liquefied natural gas) truck from its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Pune.
Since the introduction of its first model, the BE 5528+ tractor, in September 2022, Blue Energy Motors has been at the forefront of lowering carbon footprints within the logistics sector, particularly in the cement and steel industries. The BE 5528+ truck, equipped with FPT multipoint stoichiometric combustion engine technology, offers 280 HP of power and 1000 Nm of torque, making it one of the most powerful LNG trucks available in India. The truck features a 990-litre fuel tank, providing a range of up to 1400 kilometres on a single fill, ensuring extensive route coverage as the LNG dispensing network expands.
In addition to its performance, the BE 5528+ is designed with the driver’s comfort in mind, featuring a spacious cab with an air-suspended seat and automatic climate control, making long-haul journeys more comfortable. The truck’s parameters are continuously monitored using AI and machine learning-enabled telematics, ensuring optimal productivity and efficiency, backed by Blue Energy Motors' own network of support touch points.
Anirudh Bhuwalka, CEO of Blue Energy Motors, stated “The rollout and invoicing of our 500th LNG truck is a testament to our commitment to sustainable transportation and innovation. This milestone not only marks our success but also highlights the crucial role our dedicated team and valued customers have played in paving the way for a greener future.”
