IVECO presented a complete renewal of its product range and service offerings at a spectacular launch event, which featured new models for the light, medium and heavy duty segments, including new S-eWay, an electric version of its popular heavy duty truck.

The focus has been on four key pillars: enhancing business productivity, improving the driver experience, advancing sustainability, and integrating connectivity.
