Iveco has received an order to supply 178 S-Way CNG (compressed natural gas) trucks to DHL's Post & Parcel division in Germany.
The supply will enrich DHL's sustainable fleet, strengthening its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and significantly contributing to the decarbonisation of road transport.
The new vehicles will be used mainly for transport between DHL parcel sorting centres, collection from customers and urban deliveries to post offices.
Iveco S-Way CNG vehicles are equipped with Cursor engines from Fpt Industrial, the Iveco Group brand specialized in propulsion systems with low environmental impact, which can be powered by bio methane, a sustainable renewable fuel derived from waste and resulting materials;
its use can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 95% compared to a diesel engine and, if the gas comes from organic fertilizer, it can also achieve a negative carbon footprint of up to -120%.
"Compressed Natural Gas technology is currently the most mature solution on the market for reducing emissions and our Iveco S-WayCnh guarantees extremely efficient performance, maximizing the benefits of the most ecological fuels available today", commented Luca Sra, president of the Truck Business Unit of Iveco Group.
"We are proud to support DHL in its efforts to reduce its environmental impact and contribute to a more sustainable future."
