　　Iveco will introduce a host of new products and innovations on the ample stand of over 2,500 square metres, showcasing its full range – from light vechicles to heavy trucks for on- and off-road applications, from buses to heavy-duty trucks for quarries and construction sites.

　　Iveco will also present in a world premiere a new long haul futuristic concept truck breaking new frontiers for totally sustainable transport, protected by over 25 patents.

Official premiere of the New Stralis, the TCO2 Champion

　　Centre stage on the Iveco stand will be the New Stralis, which makes its debut to the international public following the official presentation that took place last June in Madrid. The New Stralis introduces a completely new driveline and, with the best reliability and efficiency, delivers leading edge Total Cost of Operation (TCO) and CO2 reduction.

　　The three-vehicle range was developed around Customer missions and meets all the requirements of the on-road heavy transportation sector: TheNew Stralis has been designed to offer the best solution for regional and short-range missions, including transport of hazardous goods, where it maintains the unique advantage given by the exclusive HI-SCR after-treatment system. The NewStralis XP was developed forthe demands of the international long-haul transport business, and is packed with innovative fuel-saving features and new services to maximize uptime and fuel efficiency. The most reliable and fuel-efficient truck on the market,designed to maximise reliability and reduce CO2 and TCO, it deliversfuel savings of up to 11%while the new generation services can add further savings of up to 3%,resulting in an impressive5.6% reduction in TCO in long-haul missions.

　　The revolutionaryNew Stralis NP (Natural Power), which runs on CNG and LNG, is the most sustainable international transport truck ever and a real breakthrough in the gas truck industry. It is the only natural gas truck to offer the power rating, driving comfort and fuel autonomy to suit long-distance haulage missions. The new engine that delivers 400 hp and 1,700 Nm torque - equal to its diesel equivalent - is coupled with an automated tramission. The improvementscontribute to a 3% reduction in TCO compared to the previous model, which already hadfuel pump costs up to 40% lower than its diesel equivalent. It isthe first true long-haul gas truck in the market that offers an alternative to diesel vehicles.

　　Also on the stand will be three“Emotional Trucks”: versions of the New Stralis XP dedicated to Ferrari,Dakar Team Petronas De Rooy Iveco and Schwabentruck as a special tribute to Iveco’s great partnerships with big names from the world of sports. The vehicles’ liveries were designed and produced by the CNH Industrial Design team, who devoted particular attention to the personalisation of the vehicles with the colours and graphics of the partnership they are dedicated to.

This vehicle is an example of how Iveco puts the driver at the core of its design process, improving productivity and providing absolute driving pleasure.

New Eurocargo, “The Truck the city likes”, in new full air suspended and CNG versions

　　Known as “The Truck the city likes”, the Eurocargo range was crowned “International Truck of the Year 2016”. On the stand, Iveco will introduce the new Euro VI C compliant ML160 (16t) in the new full air suspended version and display the eco-sustainable Natural Power version that runs on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).

　　The newEurocargo ML160 Full Air version complies with Euro VI C regulations, which will come into force on December 31st 2016, withIveco’s patented HI-SCR only technology with passive Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). It isthe only vehicle in its class (6- 19 tons) to adopt a single anti-emission systemrather than relying on exhaust gas recirculation. HI-SCR is simple, reliable and lightweight. Most importantly, it regenerates the DPF without requiring vehicle downtime or any intervention by the driver.

　　TheEurocargo ML160 Full Air on display featurespneumatic suspension on the front and rear axle,nowavailable with a payload increased by 1 ton. The constant chassis height and horizontal loading bed ensure a furtherimprovement in safety even when the load is not distributed evenly. Thereduction in vibrationin transport ensures the driver travels in comfort and the goods are well cared for. The possibility of modifying ground clearance ensureshigh versatility on approach to loading and unloading docks of varying heights, and thecapability of taking on different ramp gradients.

　　The newEurocargo Natural Power, which runs on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), will also be present on the Iveco stand. It is particularlyat home in major cities for its low emissions and quiet operation.

　　The new engine delivers 204 hp maximum power at 2,700 rpm with torque of 750 Nm from 1,400 to 1,800 rpm – 100 Nm more than its prececessor. True to Iveco’s commitment to sustainability, italready meets Euro VI Step C emissions standardswhich will come into force at the end of the year, and can run on bio-methane derived from biomass or organic waste. It is also an exceptionally quiet vehicle at 3 dB quieter than diesel, as a result of its engine technologies.

The newEurocargo NP has arange autonomy of up to 400 km, thus meeting the requirements ofa variety of missions from multi-drop urban distribution to municipality missions.

Astra HD9 for extreme conditions and environments

　　Iveco’s toughest vehicle, the ASTRA HD9, will also be on display at IAA. From the special heavy-duty chassis and state-of-the-art driveline to the simple electric and electronic architectures, everything in this extra-strong vehicle has been designed take on the most demanding situations for climate, terrain and loading capabilities. Easy to maintain and repair, it is the ideal partner on the most challenging missions.

　　The Euro VI 13 litre High Pressure Common Rail engine optimises the combustion process and increases the engine efficiency in terms of power output (up to 560hp) and torque rise while reducing noise and minimizing fuel consumption. The HI-SCR system without EGR delivers the best thermal efficiency while reducing weight and complexity. The electronic controlled variable geometry turbocharger delivers outstanding performance. The high torque at low engine speed results in excellent driving elasticity in all conditions. The robustness, versatility, mobility, mission dedication and loading capabilities of the HD9 range make it the ideal choice for heavy-duty applications in mining, construction, oil & gas and heavy haulage.
