IVECO AT RAI 2007<br />

Iveco is present at the Amsterdam RAI International<br />

Road Transport Show with the power of its 2006-<br />

2007 product offensive, which includes its off-road<br />

range, now broader than ever. Much of the stand is<br />

given over to off-road vehicles, with a special focus<br />

on light commercial vehicles. Together with Daily<br />

4x4, the recently-launched vehicle designed to respond<br />

to the needs of professionals in light commercial<br />

transport, another light off-road vehicle, Iveco<br />

Massif, makes its international debut at RAI 2007.<br />

Other vehicles exhibited on the 3,000 sq.m. Iveco<br />

stand include new Daily CNG boasting its new 3.0<br />

litre multipoint injection dedicated natural gas en-<br />

gine; new Daily and Eurocargo models demonstrating<br />

double cab availability specifically for the transport<br />

of work crews, and Trakker 6x6 with the 450<br />

hp Cursor 13 engine.<br />

Another star attraction on the Iveco stand is the return<br />

of the Innovation Centre with its focus on environmental<br />

protection, something that for Iveco is a<br />

fundamental driver of product development. A central<br />

issue is the reduction of CO 2 emissions and this<br />

is why the Innovation Centre features Iveco’s dieselelectric<br />

hybrid vehicles. The Daily and Eurocargo<br />

Hybrid prototypes in FedEx and TNT livery respec-<br />

tively look ahead to the 2008 field tests. The latestgeneration<br />

hybrid technology from Iveco enables fuel<br />

savings of up to 30% in urban environments thanks<br />

to sophisticated control and operation systems like<br />

stop&start, starting in electric mode and energy recovery<br />

from braking.<br />

The stand reflects the role of sponsorship in our<br />

commercial strategy.<br />

Besides the All Blacks sponsorship, the stand features<br />

the role Iveco plays as Official Supplier to the<br />

Ferrari F1 Racing Team, with the new Daily 40C15<br />

and the new Stralis AS tractor boasting its top of the<br />

range 560 hp Cursor 13 Euro 5 diesel engine, both<br />

exhibited in the unmistakeable Ferrari red paintwork.<br />

Also exhibited is the Ferrari F2007 Formula 1<br />

Grand Prix car.<br />
