IVECO continues driving the “road of change” towards the decarbonization of transport with its extensive multi-energy offering integrated with a comprehensive range of services, and powered by a robust ecosystem of partnerships.
The new heavy-duty IVECO S-eWay Rigid makes its international premiere, offering a flexible zero-emission solution to suit all urban and regional requirements.
IVECO debuts in the mid light commercial vehicle segment 2.5t – 3.5t with the new eMoovy electric chassis cab developed with Hyundai.
IVECO, the commercial vehicle brand of Iveco Group, deploys its strategy to bring zero-carbon solutions in all segments and applications to support its customers on their journey to zero-emission at IAA Transportation 2024, the leading platform for logistics, commercial vehicles and the transport sector. Its display at the exhibition showcases IVECO’s progress on its decarbonisation journey, achieved through its multi-energy strategy, a growing ecosystem of partners, an integrated services portfolio, and empowering innovation.
IVECO is showcasing its extended line-up of vehicles powered by HVO, natural gas, battery-electric and hydrogen propulsions – the result of its technology-neutral approach to decarbonisation. The brand is also paving the way with two brand-new vehicles on their global premiere at IAA: the heavy-duty zero-emission S-eWay Rigid and the eMoovy, the electric light commercial vehicle developed with Hyundai making its debut in the upper part of the medium segment up to 3.5t.
During the press conference held on the stand Luca Sra, President Truck Business Unit, Iveco Group, outlined the brand’s solid strategy: “We have a clear and consistent strategy founded on four pillars: Servitization, what we call “InnovAction”, a strong Partner Ecosystem, and our Multi-Energy approach. Through servitization, we have steered our business from the sale of the pure hardware to the sale of turnkey integrated mobility solutions. “InnovAction” is our way to ensure we are ready for any future challenge by reframing our people and processes to aim at operational excellence and efficiency. We are leveraging the Partner Ecosystem we have built with leading, like-minded and innovation-oriented companies to achieve new technology heights and extend our line-up for the benefit of our customers, by sharing investments and know-how. Finally, we continue to progress towards zero-emission transport, exploring the potential of all technologies and fuels available today and tomorrow to satisfy all vehicle applications and Customer’s missions and be ready for the evolving scenario.”
IVECO’s strategy is driving a constant evolution and expansion of its portfolio, offering a full choice of propulsion technologies to support its customers in their transition to zero-emissions without compromising performance and total cost of ownership: “Here at IAA we are unveiling the latest products resulting from our technology-neutral approach. The brand-new S-eWay Rigid and eMoovy complement our strong electric line-up to offer our customers the flexibility of an extended range of vehicles with the professional DNA, versatility, performance and robustness that are the hallmark of the IVECO brand.”
Iveco Group Innovation Roadmap
The brand’s vision is also underpinned by Iveco Group’s innovation roadmap, which aims to deliver TCO-driven business profitability for its customers, driver well-being, and solutions for all transport missions by prioritising three territories: Multi-Energy, Software-Defined Vehicles, and Autonomous Driving.
Marco Liccardo, Chief Technology and Digital Officer, Iveco Group, explained: “The Multi-Energy territory leads to investigating the scaling up of our new-generation zero-emission offering to be ready for whatever technology develops in the years to come. In the Software-Defined Vehicles territory, we exploit the wealth of information provided by connectivity, as big data collected and analysed by Artificial Intelligence is set to revolutionise the industry. Finally, IVECO has a strong foundation in Autonomous Driving, as Assisted Driving is already a reality on our vehicles, paving the way to new levels of safety and efficiency on the road.”
