The German manufacturer recently unveiled three new fire trucks: two with corrosion-resistant aluminium bodies, one with a body optimised for airport applications, and all with new driver display systems in the cab.

The seat is scheduled for market rollout in mid-2025, with production to be carried out at Grammer’s established Ursensollen manufacturing facility.

Both the diesel and battery electric variants of the MD series will now come with a new cab, which is four inches longer than in the previous model.

MAN’s update to the ‘TGE’ range features a revamped interior and eleven new advanced driver assistance systems.

Iveco and Ford Otosan have signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore the potential co-development of heavy-duty vehicle cabins.

The “Legendary Package” is a special version of the Class 8 Model 589 range with retro styling and vintage Peterbilt branding inside and out.

The vehicle will be used to test its energy efficiency and aerodynamics, its ability to detect vulnerable road users through integrated ADAS technology, and the comfort and ergonomics of its interior fittings and cabin dashboard.

Stellantis is selling the facelifted vans, based on the long-running ‘Ducato’ line, under four brand names: Fiat, Citroën, Opel/Vauxhall and Peugeot.

Renault Trucks announced concurrently its own 'Red Edition' of the new generation Master.

The vehicle showcased at Busworld (called the ‘E-Civitas’) was based on a Volkswagen ‘Crafter, while the new flooring concept, called ‘Triflex Air 2.0 Flooring System’, is based on a structure made of aluminium and composites.

The ‘Permalite Apex’ is a thin 14-inch light strip which can be mounted in the upper corners of a dry box or refrigerated trailer, putting it out of the way of potential damage by forklifts and other loading equipment.

The new vans, dubbed ‘TGE Next Level’, will enter production in May 2024.
