IVECO continues its journey on the "transformation path" toward decarbonizing transport, supported by a comprehensive service portfolio, multiple energy strategy and strong partnerships.

Hannover, 17 September 2024

IVECO, the commercial vehicle brand of Iveco Group, is continuing its strategy to provide zero-carbon solutions across all segments and applications to support its customers on their path to zero emissions at IAA Transportation 2024, taking place from 17-22 September in Hannover, Germany. The trade fair showcases IVECO's progress on its decarbonization journey achieved through its multi-energy strategy, a continuously growing partnership ecosystem, services integrated into this system, and strong innovation efforts.

IVECO's wide product range, consisting of vehicles powered by HVO, natural gas, battery electric and hydrogen, is the result of the brand's technology-neutral approach to decarbonization. The brand is also presenting two new vehicles making their global premiere at the IAA. One is the S-eWay Rigid, a zero-emission heavy-duty solution, and the other is the eMoovy, developed in cooperation with Hyundai. During a press conference at IVECO's stand, Luca Sra, Head of Truck Business Unit at Iveco Group, summed up the brand's solid strategy as follows:

"As IVECO, we have a coherent strategy founded on four pillars: Servitization, what we call 'InnovAction', a strong Partners Ecosystem and our Multi-Energy approach. On the servitization side, we have shifted our goal from simply selling hardware to selling turnkey integrated mobility solutions. With 'InnovAction', we have redefined our processes to target operational excellence and efficiency. Through this redefined roadmap, we aimed to be prepared for any future challenges. We have leveraged our Partners Ecosystem, established with leading, like-minded and innovation-focused companies, to create benefits for our customers through investment and knowledge sharing. We continue our efforts to reach new technology peaks and expand our product range with these partnerships. Finally, by exploring the potential of all technologies and fuels available both today and tomorrow, we continue to advance on the path to zero-emission transport. We strive to meet customer needs across all vehicle applications and to be ready for changing dynamics."

"IVECO's strategy is to support customers in their transition to zero emissions by offering diverse propulsion technologies without compromising on performance and total cost of ownership. This strategy enables continuous evolution and expansion of IVECO's portfolio. Here at the IAA, we are presenting our latest products developed with our technology-neutral approach. The new S-eWay Rigid and eMoovy, with our strong electric product range, offer our customers the flexibility of a wide vehicle range characterized by the professional DNA that sets IVECO apart, versatility, performance and durability."

IVECO's Innovation Roadmap

The brand's vision is also supported by Iveco Group's innovation roadmap, which aims to deliver solutions for all transport missions with TCO-focused business profitability, driver comfort and safety as priority across three areas: Multi-Energy, Software-Defined Vehicles and Autonomous Driving.

Marco Liccardo, Chief Technology and Digital Officer of Iveco Group, explained: "The Multi-Energy area opens the way to exploring the scaling of our next-generation zero-emission offer to be ready for any type of technology that develops in the coming years. In the Software-Defined Vehicles area, we are leveraging the richness of information provided by connectivity, with big data collected and analyzed by artificial intelligence set to revolutionize the industry. Finally, IVECO has a solid foundation in the Autonomous Driving area, as Assisted Driving is already being implemented in our vehicles. On this path, we are increasing safety and efficiency levels."
