Market."Once again, the emphasis on all-electric vehicles was clear in this edition, with two of the three award categories given to this innovative technology," added
Fabio Zammaretti, Chairman of the Sustainable Truck of the Year Awards. "The awards confirm the evolution and growing importance of zero-emission commercial
vehicles in the trucking sector. At the same time, we should recognize the efforts of manufacturers in developing trucks with increasingly efficient ICEs, especially in
the long haul, by far the most complex segment to electrify."
Tractor: MAN TGX 18.520
The Sustainable Truck of the Year (Tractor category) was awarded to the MAN TGX 18.520 for its vehicle qualities and skills.
Distribution: DAF XD Electric
The DAF XD Electric is tied to the history of the Dutch manufacturer. Its design, architecture, and essence reflect the best tradition of DAF — characterized by
concreteness and pragmatism, the guiding principles for DAF designers and engineers.
Van: IVECO eDaily
More than just a CV model, its name identifies a way of transporting. Particularly in urban transport, where the Daily stands as an authentic and recognized
benchmark. The eDaily, the 100% electric version of the iconic Daily, positions itself as the front runner in the light-duty vehicle segment.
