Iveco Group in Luxembourg: not only buses in the spotlight

The collaboration between Iveco Group and LIST will span over the next four years. While the initial activities related to sustainable and lightweight composite technologies will involve IVECO BUS, the urban, intercity and tourist bus brand of Iveco Group, the partnership is intended to encompass all brands within the Group.

Integrating composite materials into vehicle design will allow Iveco Group brands to improve their performance and efficiency, whilst lowering their TCO in order to offer customers ever more sustainable and cost-effective solutions.
