France- Iveco Group, specializes in the design, manufacturing, and marketing of a range of commercial vehicles, including light, medium, and heavy trucks. Recently, Iveco secured an order to supply 178 S-Way CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) trucks to the Post & Parcel Germany division of DHL.
This procurement aligns with DHL's sustainability initiatives, demonstrating their commitment to reducing carbon emissions and contributing to the overall decarbonization of road transport. The newly acquired trucks will primarily serve various purposes, including inter-hub transport at DHL parcel centers, customer pickups, and urban deliveries to post offices.
The IVECO S-Way CNG trucks come equipped with Cursor engines from FPT Industrial, a brand within the Iveco Group known for its low-environmental impact powertrains. Notably, these engines can be powered by bio-CNG, a sustainable renewable fuel derived from waste and residual materials. The use of bio-CNG has the potential to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 95% compared to traditional diesel engines. In cases where the gas is sourced from manure, it could even achieve a negative carbon footprint of up to -120%.
Luca Sra, President of the Truck Business Unit at Iveco Group said, "Collaborating with DHL to minimize environmental impact reflects our pride and commitment to fostering a more sustainable future."
