IVECO opens new Delivery Centre for trucks and buses in Ulm to offer tailored delivery services to its customers.

IVECO inaugurated its new multifunctional Delivery Centre on the site of its plant in Ulm, home to the Magirus fire-fighting vehicles and Competence Centre for Fire Protection. The centre is dedicated primarily to owners of heavy-duty truck and bus fleets based in Germany, and will also serve owners of other IVECO products as well as customers from Austria and Switzerland.

IVECO and Ulm have been linked for more than 150 years through the subsidiary Magirus. For the past 100 years, Ulm has stood for excellence in manufacturing diesel-powered trucks. To mark this anniversary, IVECO is opening a new multifunctional delivery centre right next to the production and development facilities in Ulm – which employ more than 1500 staff – offering customers the opportunity to turn the delivery of their new vehicle into an exciting and added-value experience.

IVECO will offer fleet owners an individually tailored delivery experience that can include comprehensive advice on the vehicle’s operation and features, or instruction on how to obtain the most fuel-efficient performance and maintain low Total Cost of Operation throughout the life cycle of the truck or bus on delivery. The customer’s delivery experience can also offer training for their drivers at the well-equipped Ulm Training Centre.

In designing the delivery experience for individual customers, IVECO can also avail itself of the other advanced facilities located on the site to include a visit of the cutting-edge Magirus fire engine manufacturing plant and the Fire Brigade museum. Truck racing enthusiasts can also enjoy the Schwabentruck Team display, which boasts a 1300 hp truck in its permanent exhibit.
