They drove up to the western ridge of Ojos del Salado \u2013 the highest active volcano on earth \u2013 in their truck powered exclusively by solar energy. Never has an e-vehicle been driven so high. \u201cThis is a record not only for this technology, but for our years of research work and for the very future of mobility,\u201d says Patrik Koller, CEO, and developer at Peak Evolution. \u201cWe hope that this success will attract more attention to alternative drives and their use in mining and other demanding transport tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Logistics partner and main sponsor Gebr\u00fcder Weiss has been on board since the very beginning. Not only did the company ensure the vehicle arrived safely in South America, but it also co-financed the innovative venture. \u201cAs the oldest transport and logistics company, we are committed to the future of mobility,\u201d says Frank Haas, Head of Corporate Brand Strategy &amp; Communications at Gebr\u00fcder Weiss. \u201cThis success underlines our ongoing support for sustainable mobility projects and innovative technologies. We are delighted for the team and will now bring the record-breaking vehicle safely back to Switzerland.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The impressive undertaking began two months ago: Gebr\u00fcder Weiss transported the e-truck from Switzerland via Rotterdam and then by sea freight to Chile. Another overland transport took the solar truck to the Atacama region. The Peak Evolution team started at the Maricunga salt lake with the first exploratory tours and acclimatization on the mountain, at an elevation of 3,400 meters. The extreme terrain and environmental conditions of the world\u2019s highest volcano not only put the high-tech vehicle to the test, but also put the team under extreme physical and mental strain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The logistics company will continue to support such forward-looking projects. January will see a dress rehearsal of the Austrian Space Forum\u2019s Mars mission take place at the Gebr\u00fcder Weiss site in Maria Lanzendorf near Vienna. The company will also test an autonomous truck next year and send an international research team to Greenland to gain important insights into climate change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Gebr\u00fcder Weiss Peak Evolution Team has set a new world altitude record for e-vehicles...","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":48754,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[270,530,11627,100,145,9937],"yst_prominent_words":[8780,4541,4542],"series":[],"episode_featured_image":"https:\/\/todologisticanews.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gebruder-Weiss-Peak-Evolution-Team.jpg","episode_player_image":"https:\/\/todologisticanews.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/LOGO-PODCAST.jpeg","download_link":"","player_link":"","audio_player":false,"episode_data":{"playerMode":"dark","subscribeUrls":{"apple_podcasts":{"key":"apple_podcasts","url":"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/uy\/podcast\/todologistica\/id1515118482","label":"Apple Podcasts","class":"apple_podcasts","icon":"apple-podcasts.png"},"google_podcasts":{"key":"google_podcasts","url":"","label":"Google Podcasts","class":"google_podcasts","icon":"google-podcasts.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/10D0EeKwuNi9BrB6KSt4px?si=Tn0hRTGJQwW6HqtWKotEZg","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"},"stitcher":{"key":"stitcher","url":"","label":"Stitcher","class":"stitcher","icon":"stitcher.png"},"ivoox":{"key":"ivoox","url":"","label":"iVoox","class":"ivoox","icon":"ivoox.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/todologisticanews.com\/site\/feed\/podcast\/todologistica","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"CPjrm5iDze\"><a href=\"https:\/\/todologisticanews.com\/site\/gebruder-weiss-peak-evolution-team-achieves-new-world-altitude-record-for-e-vehicles-at-ojos-del-salado-chile\/\">Gebr\u00fcder Weiss Peak Evolution Team achieves new world altitude record for e-vehicles at Ojos del Salado, Chile<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/todologisticanews.com\/site\/gebruder-weiss-peak-evolution-team-achieves-new-world-altitude-record-for-e-vehicles-at-ojos-del-salado-chile\/embed\/#?secret=CPjrm5iDze\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"\u00abGebr\u00fcder Weiss Peak Evolution Team achieves new world altitude record for e-vehicles at Ojos del Salado, Chile\u00bb \u2014 TodoLOGISTICA NEWS\" data-secret=\"CPjrm5iDze\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\/*!
