IVECO wins the prestigious “Sustainable Truck of the Year” award for the third year in a row: the biomethane-powered IVECO S-Way LNG tops the Tractor category

IVECO continues to affirm its role in sustainable transport with another major international achievement for the third consecutive year. After the eDaily in 2024 and the Eurocargo CNG in 2025, the biomethane-powered IVECO S-Way LNG has now been crowned ‘Sustainable Truck of the Year’ in the Tractor category, confirming the brand’s ability to set the pace of innovation in heavy-duty transport.

Established in 2016 by Italian industry magazine Vado e Torno, the Sustainable Truck of the Year awards are assigned annually by an independent jury of specialised journalists. Their assessment covers sustainability and efficiency criteria, including emissions reduction, safety performance, driving comfort, and overall environmental impact.

“This recognition celebrates a form of sustainability that is tangible, immediately accessible and aligned with real-world operator needs, confirming the IVECO S-Way LNG’s ability to deliver sustainable long-haul performance without compromising on safety or profitability,”

commented Giandomenico Fioretti, Head of Alternative Propulsion Business Development at IVECO.

“It is further proof of IVECO’s unwavering commitment to placing customers at the centre of every innovation, standing by their side with solutions that combine operational efficiency and environmental responsibility.”

By awarding the IVECO S-Way LNG, the Tractor category highlights a solution that demonstrates how the energy transition can already be implemented today without operational compromises. Powered by the 500 hp xCursor 13 engine developed by FPT Industrial, the LNG tractor—fully compatible with biomethane—delivers performance on par with diesel versions, while ensuring lower environmental impact and improved overall driveline efficiency. The latest updates have also significantly enhanced safety, comfort, and ergonomics, confirming the IVECO S-Way LNG as a mature, reliable, sustainable, and fully viable option for long-haul heavy-duty transport.

For decades, IVECO has been a pioneer in alternative energies, leading the way in natural gas technology and developing solutions that have consistently supported customers in their day-to-day operations. Its long-standing commitment to methane and biomethane has positioned the brand as a benchmark in sustainable transport, with vehicles capable of delivering concrete environmental benefits without compromising operational effectiveness.
