New European legislation mandating the use of tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) for all new commercial vehicles, including trailers, came into effect on July 7. Any tyre pressure change that exceeds 20% must be displayed (in real-time) on the driver's dashboard, alerting them to the issue as a safety precaution.

Solutrans 2023 was held between 21-25 November at Eurexpo in Lyon, France. Over 1,000 exhibitors and 50,000 guests gathered for the 17th edition of this historic show, centred around the European heavy and light commercial vehicle industry.

Set to go to market in Q1 2024, this safety system is designed to reduce the risk of accidents, extend the service life of the tyre and minimise fuel costs (and CO2 emissions) by optimising tyre pressure and therefore performance.

Compatible with vehicles utilising an electronic brake system, RADC 1.0. monitors an area of up to 3 by 10 metres.

Aspoeck UK is now offering a modular solar panel charging system for commercial vehicles vans, trucks, trailers and bus and coach.
