Ebrard published the news through his official Twitter and Instagram accounts along with a short video clip where he is seen driving a Quantum E3 model through the streets of La Paz, Bolivia. The minors of the car were detailed by the Mexican foreign minister, who highlighted some aspects such as the suspension and internal space. As for its design, he highlighted its colorful pattern on the sides with Mexican and Bolivian allusions; that contrast on two shades of white and a black roof. Likewise, he revealed that in addition to the automobile, the project also includes the manufacture of lithium batteries taking the Bolivian experience.

A motorcycle designed by Mexicans
for to! Design / Writing

February 9, 2023

The Vento Motorcycles Screamer motorcycle was designed in Mexico by Mario Cisneros, in virtual and remote collaboration with the San Diego California and China studios. It is a Scrambler-style model that combines retro-futuristic elements, but designed to age slowly over time.

The design sought above all practicality and multi-terrain handling capacity with an unmistakable style. The styling of this motorcycle, together with its proportions, transmits robustness as well as dynamism, well planted on the ground, but ready to take off cutting through the wind.

São Paulo – Agrale sold ten units of the utility vehicle Agrale Marruá (pictured above) to the United Arab Emirates in mid-December, as per information made public last week. The AM2 model vehicles will be used by the UAE Armed Forces in Abu Dhabi, the country’s capital.

Agrale is based in the city of Caxias do Sul and builds tractors, trucks, buses, utilities and engines. The company sells its utility vehicles to many countries’ armed and security forces, including Brazil’s. In addition to its headquarters, the company has other two industrial plants in Caxias do Sul and one in Argentina.

The vehicles sold to the UAE went through few adaptations, the company reported, including a vinyl hood with a special weather-resistant material against UV + UVB rays and high temperatures, due to the region’s hot weather, and a more powerful air-conditioner. According to Agrale, the AM2 models have been used by the Abu Dhabi Armed Forces since 2018.

The company’s commercial and marketing director Edson Ares Sixto Martins said that the relevance of the deal goes beyond the numbers exported and is a testament of the strenght and performance of the Agrale Marruá. “This encourages us to keep pursuing new orders, not only from the UAE but from other countries, too,” he was quoted as saying in a press release

Agrale and Equipmake launch new bus in Buenos Aires
RGENTINA


A new Agrale electric bus, developed by British electrification specialist Equipmake in collaboration with the Argentine-Brazilian manufacturer and featuring the company’s latest-generation zero-emission powertrain, has been launched in Buenos Aires.

Following successful tests by Agrale in Argentina, the new bus will now begin in-service trials on the streets of Buenos Aires. Having committed to halving its carbon emissions by 2030 and becoming completely carbon neutral by 2050, Buenos Aires sees electric buses as playing a crucial role in supporting its climate commitments.

The Equipmake-powered Agrale MT17.0 LEe is a 12m single decker capable of carrying 70 passengers. It will be operated for the next 12 months by DOTA, the largest bus operator in Buenos Aires.

The drivetrain has been developed as part of the Advanced Propulsion Centre-funded CELEB (Cost Effective Low Entry Bus) project, in which Equipmake has led multiple international partners over the last three years, with the objective being to deliver a cost-effective bus designed for the South American market.

Working with Agrale and Argentine coachbuilder Todo Bus, Equipmake developed an electric version of the single-deck Agrale MT17.0 LE, installing its own Zero Emission Drivetrain (ZED). The new vehicle features a bespoke Equipmake ZED with a 318kWh lithium-ion battery, Equipmake’s own HTM 3500 electric motor, producing 3,500Nm of torque at 1,000rpm and a maximum power of 400kW, and integrated into the prop shaft without the need for a separate transmission.

Equipmake estimates that the new electric Agrale MT17.0LEe will have a range of up to 150 miles, which it says is more than enough for a day’s use in Buenos Aires. It can be recharged in the depot overnight via a CSS2 DC charging point.

Following the successful completion of the test, the objective is for mass manufacturing to begin in Buenos Aires with Agrale and Todo Bus, using the licensed Equipmake ZED technology, with the wider ambition of bringing state-of-the-art electrification to other South American countries, in line with the collaboration agreement between the company and Agrale.

CEO of Equipmake Ian Foley said: “On behalf of everyone at Equipmake, I am proud to see the MT17.0LEe, featuring our ZED system, launched here today at the C40 World Mayors Conference and the imminent start of in-service trials on the streets of Buenos Aires. Through this Advanced Propulsion Centre-funded project, we have worked closely with Agrale along with other key partners, and the result is a state-of-the-art yet cost-effective bus. Its potential is huge. Buenos Aires has around 16,000 buses alone and electric buses can play a key role in helping the city hit its targets of halving carbon emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050.”
