Iveco Group opens upgraded test track in Germany
IVECO has officially inaugurated its fully renovated and expanded test track in Ulm, Germany. This renovation follows last year's upgrade to the Group's proving ground in Turin, Italy: together, the two state-of-the-art complexes significantly advance the company's testing capabilities for next-generation commercial vehicles. Originally opened in the late 1980s, the Ulm test track just underwent a major renovation to enhance testing of Iveco Group's mobility solutions for the future, including trucks, buses and special-purpose vehicles. The 150,000 square metres of this cutting-edge complex feature a new driving dynamics area and a 1.6-kilometre oval circuit with steep curves and dedicated tracks for braking, noise testing and incline trials under highly realistic conditions. In addition, the track is designed to accommodate future technologies, such as those on board electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles.
