Smet is refreshing its fleet of industrial vehicles with an order from Iveco for one hundred S-Way Fuel Hero road tractors, capable of running on the biofuel Hvo. These two-axle models are equipped with the Cursor 13 eVGT engine and a twelve-speed Hi-Tronix transmission, all compatible with pure hydro-treated vegetable oil (Hvo). The supply will be handled by the Iveco Mecar dealership.
"We have embarked on a journey aimed ultimately at building a concretely sustainable future through a new paradigm of progress for the transport sector," stated Domenico De Rosa, president of the Smet Group. "For over thirty years, we have embraced maritime and rail intermodality, which we then combined with state-of-the-art vehicles for the first and last mile, featuring alternatives to diesel propulsion and thus reducing environmental impact. The inclusion of these one hundred Iveco S-Way Fuel Hero trucks compatible with vegetable biofuel Hvo in our fleet is further tangible proof that the Smet Group is investing in technological innovation to reduce environmental impact for the benefit of the community."
