London, November 17, 2021
IVECO, a brand of CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE:
CNHI / MI: CNHI) and a pioneer in the commercialization and
manufacturing of vehicles powered by alternative fuels, announced
today an important development in its commercial relation with
Amazon.
Amazon has already taken delivery of the first
batch of 216 units IVECO S-WAY CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) to be
operated by its partners in Europe and another 848 units have been
ordered with deliveries to be started in the middle of 2022 (for a
total order of 1,064 trucks).
These 1,064 trucks are powered by the
state-of-the-art FPT Industrial Cursor 13 Natural Gas engines and
equipped with 1052-liter CNG tanks, the largest available, with the
expectation that they will yield an impressive range of 620 km
(approx. 385 miles) between refueling. The 848 units on order for
delivery in 2022 will also feature IVECO Driver Pal, the Brand’s
trailblazing on-board vocal driver companion with Amazon Alexa
features.
Gerrit Marx, designated Chief Executive Officer
of Iveco Group, said: “We have been pioneering gas propulsion
technology for 25 years, developing solutions that allow operators
to make significant reductions in emissions right now.
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 decarbonizing transport by
2050. Iveco Group will continue leading the way in combustion
engines running on renewable fuels, the only viable solution
already available at scale on the market to reduce emissions. Let’s
not forget that a CNG truck powered by bio-methane can cut CO2
emissions by up to 95% from a well-to-wheel CO2 measuring approach,
effectively contributing to the decarbonization process.”
