Iveco Group (MI: IVG) today announces the creation of a new entity, GATE ‒ Green & Advanced Transport Ecosystem, a long-term, all-inclusive rental model for electric trucks and vans, which will powerfully support the industry’s energy transition. The expected operational launch date is mid-2023, when GATE, as a fully digitalised business, will begin offering its services to pilot clients in Italy.
GATE is going to have an independent business structure with employees dedicated to meeting the needs of electric commercial vehicle customers, initially serving both the IVECO and Nikola brands. The new entity will offer a comprehensive service based on a pay-per-use formula that will allow customers access to the propulsion of tomorrow. A full ecosystem focused on a variety of zero-emission vehicles, from last mile delivery to long haulage.
With green equipment at its core, the ecosystem will deliver sustainable solutions to customers, who can define the level of support and flexibility they require to run their business and make the most of all the services GATE will make available, including maintenance & repair, connectivity and telematics, financing, insurance, energy, and additional ancillary services.
With GATE, Iveco Group intends to fulfil its ambition to establish a new paradigm in the transport industry and take a decisive step forward in designing the future of sustainable and digital mobility.
