At the Mobility Move conference and trade fair, taking place from April 1-3 in Berlin, ZF will unveil its latest cutting-edge technologies aimed at city bus manufacturers and fleet operators. These innovations support decarbonization efforts and enhance public transport efficiency. Additionally, ZF will participate in the lecture program at the trade exhibition, located at booth 66.
Streamlined Electrification: ZF’s CeTrax 2 e-Drive for Buses
At Mobility Move 2025, ZF will debut its newly developed CeTrax 2 electric central drive in a German premiere. This next-generation drive offers significant improvements over its predecessor, integrating advanced components such as an electric motor, SiC inverter, and a 3-speed gearbox. As part of ZF’s modular electric drive system, CeTrax 2 delivers enhanced performance with lower energy consumption.
With a continuous output of 210 kW and a peak torque of 8,700 Nm, CeTrax 2 is designed for buses weighing up to 19 tons. Despite its increased power, the installation space remains comparable to the previous model, ensuring compatibility with ZF axles. On the software front, it benefits from ZF’s extensive expertise in cutting-edge technologies, including advanced cybersecurity functions.
Engineering and Consulting for Highly Automated Driving
To support manufacturers in adopting automated and highly automated driving solutions, ZF offers comprehensive expertise in hardware and software development. With tailored solutions, operators can transition to safe, highly automated vehicles more efficiently.
ZF’s capabilities were successfully demonstrated in the RABus project in Mannheim and Friedrichshafen, funded by the state of Baden-Württemberg. ZF Mobility Solutions played a key role in route selection, evaluation, and mapping, as well as defining hardware and software requirements. Additionally, the company provided expertise in highly automated driving functions and Level 4 vehicle platform approval processes.
