Hydrogen-based drive technologies can be a suitable solution to decarbonize very flexible and particularly demanding applications in heavy-duty long-haul truck transport. With the Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Truck, a record-setting vehicle protoype is being displayed at the IAA Transportation 2024 that demonstrated the practicality of using liquid hydrogen in road freight transportation last year by completing the #HydrogenRecordRun, achieving a range of 1,047 kilometers across Germany with one fill of liquid hydrogen under real-life conditions. The Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Trucks have now reached an advanced development stage and can be deployed in first customer fleets, e.g. in initial trials with Air Products, Amazon, Holcim, INEOS and Wiedmann & Winz.

Make sure that no other processes with intensive Internet use (e.g. file download) are active. Also check whether your Internet connection is fast enough - we recommend a transfer speed of approx. 6,000 Kbit/second.
If you are using a mobile device, make sure that the signal quality is sufficient - the use of WLAN should be preferred over mobile Internet use.
A heavy load on your device can also have a negative effect on the quality - therefore close tabs and programs that are currently not needed.
