Magirus has unveiled what it maintains is the world's first CNG-powered fire engine, the Compact class (H)LF 10.

The vehicle is an addition to the Innovative Drive Line series, which sees the development and application of alternative drive technology to the Magirus range of fire-fighting vehicles.

The first CNG-powered fire engine, unveiled in Ulm, Germany is now in production.

The (H)LF 10 is built on the Iveco Eurocargo Natural Power 4×2 chassis and has a capacity of 420 litres of CNG. The vehicle has a range of up to 300km or a pump operation of up to four hours.

The interior design of the fire engine has additional heating for the crew compartment powered by natural gas, as well as a hydrogen generator with battery-powered fans and rescue devices.

CNH Industrial's brands have a history in developing and commercialising natural gas-powered vehicles. There are some 28,000 natural gas-powered vehicles from CNH Industrial's truck and bus brands, Iveco and Iveco Bus.
