摘要: Allison Transmission has announced a three-year partnership agreement with Team de Rooy, multiple winner of the Dakar Rally, to help develop electrically powered trucks for the rally and other events. Testing is scheduled to start on an electrified truck with a conventional Allison transmission in early 2022, ahead of a competition debut at the Dakar Rally in 2023. Gerard de Rooy, managing director of De Rooy Transport and owner of the truck rally team, Team De Rooy, said: "Dakar and other rally raids are really tough on mechanical components, especially the suspension, axles and gearbox. On hard surfaces, severe vibrations go through the whole driveline and consequently through the entire rally truck, hour after hour, causing damage. On loose sand, traditional clutch-operated transmissions limit traction at low speeds. That's why our team switched in 2018 to an Allison fully automatic transmission."
