Press article in "DIESEL PROGRESS INTERNATIONAL EDITION" (September-October 2007)
Deutz, Atlas-Weyhausen and Heinzmann have joined together to develop a prototype of a hybrid wheel loader. The Atlas AR 65-Hybrid uses a Deutz diesel engine and electric motor-generator, and controls from Heinzmann to provide machine propulsion functions with a fuel economy improvement estimated in the range of 15 to 20% over conventional machines.
