IVECO has bagged an order to supply 1,064 gas-powered S-WAY trucks to Amazon for supporting its European operations. Having received the first batch of 216 CNG powered IVECO S-WAY already, the remaining batch of 848 trucks is expected to be delivered by the mid of 2022. Commenting on the new order, Gerrit Marx, Chief Executive Officer of Iveco Group, said, “Collaboration with global leaders like Amazon is a testament to the robust capability of our innovative products and our unyielding commitment to the industry objective of de-carbonising transport by 2050.” These 1,064 trucks are powered by cuttingedge FPT Industrial Cursor 13 Natural Gas engines and equipped with 1052-litre CNG tanks, the largest available, with an expected range of 620 km between refuelling. The 848 units ordered for delivery in 2022 will also include IVECO Driver Pal, the brand’s ground-breaking on board vocal driver companion with inbuilt Amazon Alexa capabilities.
