FPT Industrial, the powertrain brand of Iveco Group, has unveiled the first concept application of the new XC13 hydrogen combustion engine with a snow groomer for commercial and outdoor sites. FPT Industrial partnered with PRINOTH, a producer of snow groomers and tracked vehicles, to create the LEITWOLF h2MOTION.

This vehicle is equipped with the new FPT XC13 Hydrogen version, 13 liter, six-cylinder engine, delivering 460 HP (338 kW) and 2,000 Nm of torque. The new FPT XC13 is the first multi-fuel single-base engine. From diesel to natural gas - including biomethane - hydrogen and renewable fuels, the base engine has been designed with multiple versions to offer component standardization and integration with the final product. 

The hydrogen combustion engine installed on the PRINOTH LEITWOLF h2MOTION is an additional technology in the FPT Industrial portfolio for zero CO2 emission solutions, offering customers the familiarity they are used to with traditional machines. The hydrogen fuel is stored in five tanks mounted on the back of the machine for an estimated running time of more than three hours.    

Designed primarily for preparing slopes in larger ski resorts due to its power and size, the new concept vehicle is another step towards PRINOTH’s goal of a fully carbon neutral fleet.
