We’re happy to share the news that the second issue (the first in 2024) of Sustainable Truck&Van magazine is online. You can read all here or, if you’re going to participate in ACT Expo 2024, Las Vegas, you’ll be able to find it there!

STV Magazine: what’s inside?

It’s quite a big issue, the one we have prepared. Three valuable interviews to start: Roger Alm, president of Volvo Trucks, talking about energy transition, and more. Lawren Markle on the organization of ACT Expo, and Anja van Niersen, CEO of the joint venture Milence, dealing with high power infrastructure for electric trucks in Europe.

Previews: the Volvo Aero range (also for electric vehicles) on the spotlight, along with the new generation of the Mercedes eSprinter for the European and North American markets. Then, our focus on the electric vehicle market: eight significant stories (from Volta Trucks to Tevva; from Arrival to Tesla, Canoo, Hyzon Motors, Rivian, Nikola) that show how difficult it is to reach series production even in the presence of very good entrepreneurial projects.
