Summary

The optiTruck project aims to improve energy efficiency in heavy-duty vehicles by at least 20%. It integrates advanced powertrain control and intelligent transport systems to optimize vehicle performance under real driving conditions.

Objective

The automotive industry has made a substantial effort in recent years in developing powertrain technologies to improve fuel efficiency on Heavy-Duty Vehicles (HDVs).

Due to increasing road freight traffic, however, projections indicate that total HDV energy use and CO2 emissions are expected to remain stable at the current level over the long term, if no policy action is taken.

This is clearly incompatible with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport by around 60% below 1990…
