Ford is credited with kicking off the powerful, high-flying pickup truck segment with the 2010 debut of the F-150 Raptor. There is also new competition from Ram with TRX. Chevrolet has no direct competitors to the Raptor or his TRX, but that could change in the future as the new trademark points to potential rivals.

As carbaz General Motors has reportedly filed several trademarks with the US Patent and Trademark Office recently. Trademarks are the ZRX and ZH2 names. The outlet believes the two names he refers to the two new trucks. ZRX is raptor and TRX ZH2 is used in hydrogen fueled trucks.

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of ZRX or ZH2. The ZRX name was proposed for 2019 as an off-road trim. silverado 1500 ZH2 can be traced back to 2016. Colorado In 2016, the ZH2 debuted as a hydrogen-powered pickup for the US Army. At the time, this truck was being used to see if hydrogen pickup trucks were viable for off-road missions. The Silverado ZH2 was introduced by GM Defense in 2018.

Trademark filings are interesting, but they don’t always match the actual vehicle. Sometimes car companies just trademark their names to keep other brands from getting them.

Hydrogen-powered pickup trucks are of particular interest, as fuel cell vehicles continue to be a niche market with only a few options for sale.Additionally, Chevrolet Silverado EV Having invested heavily in its electrification goals, hydrogen-powered trucks are an interesting option for the brand.

In any case, we suspect it will be a few years before we have more information on the rumored truck. chevrolet.
