A legacy of innovation on display: honouring icons, unveiling the future
At the heart of 50xBeyond is an impressive vehicle display showcasing IVECO’s legacy of engineering innovation and its continued evolution for the future. The brand’s heritage is represented by historical milestones such as the Daily’s very first model, which left IVECO’s assembly line back in 1978, and the legendary Turbostar, a heavy road vehicle that became a best-seller in Italy and a major player in the European market in the 1980s. Signalling IVECO’s sustainable future are the latest electric propulsion vehicles on preview for the first time.
The IVECO S-eWay Artic is making its first public appearance, expanding the brand’s electric heavy-duty lineup following the 2024 launch of the S-eWay Rigid. With a long-haul autonomy of up to 600 km, this new range combines the best of the S-Way models with cutting-edge battery electric technology, providing an efficient zero-emission solution for long-distance and regional transport.
Also unveiled are two new electric vans that expand the brand’s electric light commercial vehicle offering. The new vehicles result from the partnership with Stellantis Pro One announced this year in March. The eJolly is a fully electric van of 2.8 to 3.2t, designed for city centres and a reference for the medium segment covering the full spectrum of urban missions. The eSuperJolly, positioned in the 3.5-4.2t segment, combines over 420 km of range, optimal payload-to-battery ratio and excellent cost efficiency for mainstream delivery fleets.
The IVECO S-Way Limited Edition Anniversario, bearing an exclusive livery commemorating the milestone, is prominently on display next to the stage. The special livery includes a 50-Year sticker and Anniversary logo on the front, grille in the cab colour and additional optional elements. The interior features customized mats, seat and seat belt covers, dashboard in leather with an Italian flag. The Limited Edition will run to 250 units, which can be ordered in white, grey, and champagne colours, in the Arctic 4.x2 Diesel version. The IVECO S-Way Anniversario is now available to order.
A City-wide Celebration of the IVECO world
On the final day, a celebratory parade with sixteen vehicles that made the history of the brand and of wheeled transport, will parade through the city centre, from the Iveco Group Industrial Village to OGR Torino. This parade celebrates the brand’s enduring role in the city’s life over generations. The rare and symbolic models include vehicles dating back from the 1930s and 1940s featuring legendary examples such as the pre-war OM Taurus, the versatile OM Leoncino, the Fiat 690 and the IVECO 330 ANW Overland, known for travelling across remote areas, conquering extreme terrains and weather conditions in the 1990s. Also, on parade are icons of modern power and performance, such as the IVECO S-Way Metallica and S-Way carrying the Ferrari vehicles to the races.
A milestone with momentum
The 50xBeyond event marks a key milestone in IVECO’s journey, reaffirming the brand’s ambition to remain at the forefront of the transport industry, driving sustainability, performance and customer success with the ‘spirito in movimento’ that inspires it. The brand looks ahead to the future with confidence, backed by 50 years of innovation and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
