IVECO, the brand of Iveco Group that designs, manufactures, and markets heavy, medium, and light-duty trucks, announces that its flagship heavy-duty truck, the IVECO S-Way (Model Year 2024 or MY24), has received confirmation by TÜV SÜD that it offers a fuel consumption reduction of up to 10.54% compared to its predecessor (Model Year 2022). This achievement underscores IVECO’s ongoing commitment to delivering cost-efficient and sustainable transport solutions to its customers.

 

TÜV SÜD is a global organization promoting quality, safety, and sustainability in technical innovations. It confirmed the reduction in fuel consumption following comparisons it conducted on behalf of IVECO on equivalent models from the IVECO S-Way current model and its predecessor. These tests, performed on the same route and by the same drivers, confirm the fuel performance of the IVECO S-Way MY24, highlighting its excellent efficiency within the heavy-duty truck segment.

 

Luca Sra, President, Truck Business Unit, Iveco Group commented “The confirmation received from TÜV SÜD is an important milestone that reinforces our commitment to providing real benefits to our customers. When we introduced the new IVECO S-Way in November 2023, along with the entire Model Year 24 range, we promised high performance and significant fuel savings. This endorsement from a globally recognized third party demonstrates that we deliver on our promises. It underscores our focus on putting the customer at the center of everything we do at IVECO.”

 

The IVECO S-Way owes its exceptional fuel efficiency to its state-of-the-art powertrain technologies, featuring the advanced XCURSOR 13 engine by FPT Industrial, the brand of Iveco Group dedicated to the design, production and sale of low-environmental impact powertrains. This powertrain is optimized for combustion efficiency and CO2emission reduction, along with improved aerodynamics, driveline, and GPS predictive drive enhancements.

 

The tested vehicle was equipped with the new High-Performance Engine Brake, which combines reduced weight and excellent braking performances as an alternative to a conventional retarder, enhancing the fuel efficiency as well as the new long rear axle ratio of 2.17, and the state-of-the-art GPS predictive driving system, now integrating a lateral control strategy to grant outstanding driving comfort together and fuel economy.

 

Leveraging its enhanced technologies, it delivers exceptional fuel savings, reduces emissions, and optimises performance, ensuring customers benefit from lower operating costs and a reduced environmental impact.

 

The IVECO S-Way has been designed around the customer, with productivity, safety, and connectivity at its core. It provides a complete transport solution offering excellent life on board for drivers, together with and enhanced competitiveness, fleet efficiency and Total Cost of Ownership for fleet owners.
