History
Iveco (stylized in all caps as IVECO) was incorporated on 1 January 1975, with the merger of five different brands: FIAT Veicoli Industriali (with headquarters in Turin), OM (Brescia, Italy), Lancia Veicoli Speciali (Italy), Unic (France), and Magirus-Deutz (Germany).{{cite web|title=History of Iveco / 1975–1984|url=http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-us/group/history/iveco/Pages/iveco_1975_1984.aspx|publisher=fiatindustrial.com|access-date=April 4, 2013}}
Following the merger, the newly founded Iveco began rationalizing its product range, manufacturing plants, and sales network, while keeping the original brands. From 1975 to 1979, the Iveco range included 200 basic models and 600 versions spanning from 2.7 tons of GVW for light vehicles to over 40 tons for heavy vehicles, as well as buses and engines.{{citation |first = Massimo |last = Condolo |title = IVECO 1975–2005 |language = it |date = September 2005 |publisher = Fondazione Negri |ref = MC1 |isbn = 8889108045}}{{citation |first1 = Raffaele |last1 = Sanguineti |first2 = Carlo Felice |last2 = Zampini Salazar |ref = SZS |title = IVECO Story |work = The world of Transport |date = 1994 |publisher = Norden Publishing House Ltd. |page = 144}}
In 1977, the light- to medium-weight Iveco Zeta range was introduced, replacing the 20-year-old OM Lupetto. Integrating the Fiat-OM range with the Unic and Magirus lineups was completed by 1980.{{cite journal |journal = TRUCK |date = September 1982 |ref = truck982 |page = 27 |editor-last = Kennett |editor-first = Pat |title = Intertruck: Italy |last = Norbye |first = Jan |location = London, UK |publisher = FF Publishing Ltd}} IVECO moved in to work on increasing productivity and engine development.

From 1986, Iveco S.p.A. held a 52% stake in Iveco Ford Truck Ltd, a joint venture (and effectively a merger) with Ford of Europe's truck division. Ford plants took over production and sales of the major vehicles in the Iveco range and continued production of the Ford Cargo.John Carroll, Peter James Davies: The Complete Book of Tractor & Trucks, 2000 Lorenz Books – p. 408 In the mid-1980s, Astra Veicoli Industriali, which produces dumpers and construction site/quarry vehicles in Piacenza, became part of Iveco Group.Condolo, p. 11 In 1989, the first Diesel engine with EGR to reduce polluting emissions compatible with commercial vehicles was produced, and the new Daily launched that same year was fitted with it.
In 1990, the group purchased 60% control of Spanish industrial company ENASA, which owned the industrial vehicle builder Pegaso. In the 1990s, the EuroCargo, EuroTech, EuroTrakker, and EuroStar vehicles represented a total facelift for the range. The EuroCargo and the EuroTech were named "Truck of the Year" in 1992 and 1993, respectively, and for the first time, this recognition was awarded to the same manufacturer for two years in a row.Condolo, pp. 146–147 English company Seddon Atkinson was purchased in 1991 and brought its long heritage of special vehicles for the construction and refuse-collection industries.Condolo, p. 10 That same year, the first TurboDaily assembly line was inaugurated at the Nanjing Motor Corporation in China.Sanguineti & Zampini Salazar, pp. 230 In 1991, IVECO announced that they were withdrawing from the North American market at the end of the calendar year; they had been selling the midrange Iveco Z/Euro there since 1978.{{cite web | url = https://www.upi.com/Archives/1990/09/10/Iveco-to-end-US-truck-sales-next-year/1536652939200/ | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20201005004233/https://www.upi.com/Archives/1990/09/10/Iveco-to-end-US-truck-sales-next-year/1536652939200/ | archive-date = 2020-10-05 | last = Zverina | first = Jan A. | title = Iveco to end U.S. truck sales next year | work = UPI Archives | publisher = United Press International, Inc. | date = 1990-09-10 }} In 1992, Iveco took over the primary constructor of industrial vehicles in Australia to form Ital, originally called International Trucks Australia.Iveco acquires International Aust Truck & Bus Transportation June 1992 page 9 In 1996 firefighting activities in Germany were structured under the company Iveco Magirus Brandschutztechnik GmbH.{{cite web|title=History of Iveco 1995–2004|url=http://fiatindustrial.com/en-US/group/history/iveco/Pagine/iveco_1995_2004.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120626133158/http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/group/history/iveco/Pages/iveco_1995_2004.aspx|archive-date=June 26, 2012 |website=Fiat Industrial Official}}{{Cite web |date=2022-09-17 |title=Xe nội bài 247 |url=https://xenoibai247.com/ |access-date=2025-04-09 |language=en}} The following year, these activities were boosted by the arrival of an Austrian company, Löhr, which then became Löhr Magirus. In 1998, the Cursor 8 was launched, followed the next year by the Cursor 10, the first diesel engine with a variable-geometry turbine and the first common-rail diesel engine for heavy industrial vehicles. The 125th anniversary of the presentation of the first Magirus ladderJohn Carroll, Peter James Davies: The Complete Book of Tractor & Trucks, 2000 Lorenz Books – p. 430 was celebrated together with the delivery of the 5000th Magirus aerial ladder produced since the Second World War.
In 2000 it was renamed Iveco Trucks Australia Limited. In 2003, Iveco entirely bought out Irisbus, originally part of a joint venture with Renault.{{citation | first = Petr | last = Pavlinek | title = A Successful Transformation?: Restructuring of the Czech Automobile Industry | date = 2008 | publisher = Springer | page = 151 }} In 2004, the Iveco Motors brand was introduced, which became an umbrella for the production of engines; the following year, it was incorporated into the newly founded Fiat Powertrain Technologies.

=Electric drive=
Iveco developed and built the first Daily with electric propulsion in 1986;Raffaele Sanguineti, Carlo Felice Zampini Salazar: IVECO Story. The world of Transport, 1994 Norden Publishing House Ltd. – p. 330 Later, the range was broadened to include trucks and city buses.International Energy Agency, Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development: Hydrogen and Fuel Cells, 2004 OECD Publishing – p. 143 Iveco introduced the New Daily with electric propulsion and zero exhaust emissions, in which a battery system powers an electric three-phase asynchronous motor – through the aid of an inverter – in charge of moving the vehicle directly while recovering energy during braking.{{cite web|title=Fiat Industrial 2011 Sustainability Report|url= http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/sustainability/Documents/files/fi_eng_sostenibilita_sfogliabile_ott.pdf|page=81|publisher=Fiat Industrial}}{{unreliable source?|reason=Redirect to homepage|date=August 2016}} The vehicle runs on two to four batteries made with Na/NiCl2 (sodium-nickel chlorine) technology at a nominal 278 Volts. The maximum velocity is electronically limited to 70{{nnbsp}}km/h, while the vehicle's range is from 90 to 130{{nnbsp}}km on a fully charged battery, depending on the number of batteries and the mission.
=Diesel-electric parallel hybrid traction=
The parallel hybrid solution incorporates both a diesel engine and an electric motor that can be used individually or simultaneously, which makes for greater operating flexibility and allows the vehicle to work under both urban and non-urban conditions.{{cite web|website=Fiat Industrial Official website|url=http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/innovation/iveco/Pages/technology_highlights.aspx|title=Technology Highlights|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120902140925/http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/innovation/iveco/Pages/technology_highlights.aspx|archive-date=September 2, 2012}} In 2010 Iveco introduced this technology on the Eurocargo Ibrido, a commercial vehicle for the European market with electri-diesel parallel propulsion for distributing and collecting goods in city centres. The payload capacity decreases by 200{{nnbsp}}kg in comparison to diesel-engine models, but it is possible to save up to 30% on the urban cycle.{{cite web|title=Fiat Industrial 2011 Sustainability Report|url= http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/sustainability/Documents/files/fi_eng_sostenibilita_sfogliabile_ott.pdf|page=82|publisher=Fiat Industrial}}{{unreliable source?|reason=Redirect to homepage|date=August 2016}}{{cite web|website=Iveco Official website|url=http://web.iveco.com/en-us/press-room/kit/Pages/E3-Diesel%E2%80%93ElectricParallelHybridTraction.aspx|title=Diesel – Electric Parallel Hybrid Traction|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120701223103/http://web.iveco.com/en-us/press-room/kit/Pages/E3-Diesel%E2%80%93ElectricParallelHybridTraction.aspx|archive-date=July 1, 2012}} The Eurocargo hybrid range is made up of two versions:
- The 7.5-ton version uses a Tector Diesel FPT Industrial engine with 16 valves and 4 Euro V cylinders, with a maximum power of 160{{nnbsp}}hp (118 kW); this is paired with a drive system made of an electric motor-generator with 60{{nnbsp}}hp (44{{nnbsp}}kW), a 6-speed automated gearbox and a lithium-ion battery pack (Li-Ion) of rated capacity 1.8{{nnbsp}}kWh.
- The 12-ton version uses the FPT Industrial Tector engine with 16 valves and 4 EEV cylinders with a maximum power of 180{{nnbsp}}hp (132{{nnbsp}}kW), paired with an electric motor-generator with 60{{nnbsp}}hp (44{{nnbsp}}kW), a 6-speed automated gearbox and a lithium-ion battery pack (Li-Ion) of rated capacity 1.8{{nnbsp}}kWh.
=Diesel-electric hybrid=
Iveco has been active in this sector since 1990 with 6, 7, 4 and 12 metre buses for urban and suburban transportation. The series hybrid technology features a diesel engine – smaller than that of a traditional vehicle – that acts as a battery charger.Sanguineti & Zampini Salazar, pp. 216-217
=CNG – compressed natural gas=
Iveco's range of light, medium and heavy vehicles and buses can run on methane. Methane makes it possible to save on consumption by 38% per kg transported as compared to that consumed by diesel engines for the same payload and distance travelled. In addition, compared to Euro{{nnbsp}}VI diesel engines, methane engines reduce NOx emissions by approximately 60% and particulate emissions by approximately 70%.Oecd: Can Cars come clean? Strategies for low emission vehicles?, 2004 OECD Publishing – p. 166
=Liquefied natural gas=
In April 2012 Iveco presented its first vehicle with this technology, the Stralis LNG. As opposed to vehicles with compressed natural gas (CNG) technology, liquefied natural gas (LNG) technology takes the vehicle farther on a full tank (up to 750{{nnbsp}}km) and reduces the vehicle's tare thus increasing the load. The main difference between the two technologies lies in the type of natural gas storage employed, which in this case is kept in a liquid state at −161{{nnbsp}}°C in cryogenic tanks; it is then heated in a heat exchanger so that once it reaches the engine it is a gas.{{cite web|title=Fiat Industrial 2011 Annual Report|url=http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/investor_relations/financial_reports/bilanci/FiatDocuments/FI_Relazione_finanziaria_annuale_2011_FINALE_NIS_ENG.pdf|page=51|publisher=Fiat Industrial}} Also, the noise emitted decreases by 3 to 6 decibels over an analogous diesel engine vehicle.{{cite web|website=Iveco Official website|title=Iveco Press Room|url=http://web.iveco.com/en-us/press-room/release/Pages/RAITRakkerLNG.aspx}}
=Iveco Trakker Bifuel – diesel-ethanol prototype=
Iveco created the first prototype of a bifuel, diesel and ethanol-run vehicle. The technology was developed by Iveco together with FPT Industrial and Bosch.{{cite web|title=Fiat Industrial 2011 Sustainability Report|url= http://www.fiatindustrial.com/en-US/sustainability/Documents/files/fi_eng_sostenibilita_sfogliabile_ott.pdf|page=80|publisher=Fiat Industrial}}{{unreliable source?|reason=Redirect to homepage|date=August 2016}} The prototype uses a Trakker truck with Common Rail Cursor{{nnbsp}}9 engine with 360{{nnbsp}}HP that may be powered by a 40–60% ethanol-diesel blend.{{cite web|title=40% ethanol, 60% diesel buses offer 6% fuel savings, says Iveco|url=http://www.biofuelsdigest.com/bdigest/2011/05/18/40-ethanol-60-diesel-buses-offer-6-fuel-savings-says-iveco/|date=May 18, 2011|website=Biofuel Digest}} The prototype was tested by Raízen, a joint venture between the cane sugar producer Cosan and Shell. In 2011, this prototype earned Iveco the "Prêmio Top Etanol" – for the alternative fuel technology.
=Heating and air-conditioning systems=
A prototype of a heat pump system for electric and hybrid vehicles was installed on the Iveco Daily vehicle. The system cools or heats the passenger compartment by transferring low-temperature heat generated by the drive systems. At the same time, the control strategies minimise the energy demand in order to achieve a low impact on consumption.{{cite web|title=Innovative Air-Conditioning Systems For Conventional and Electric Vehicles|url=http://www.ice-project.webs.upv.es/images/public/Paper_IIE-UPV_EAEC_2011.pdf|website=Ice Projects|access-date=November 2, 2012|archive-date=March 4, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304060930/http://www.ice-project.webs.upv.es/images/public/Paper_IIE-UPV_EAEC_2011.pdf|url-status=dead}}
