Episode Notes

Discover how advanced materials enable next-generation trucks and buses to meet stricter CO₂ targets while improving performance, efficiency, durability, and design flexibility.

European trucks and buses are entering a major redesign cycle driven by stricter EU CO₂ targets under the revised Heavy-Duty Vehicle CO₂ Standards, alongside fleet economics, charging and hydrogen infrastructure readiness, and the shift toward software defined vehicle architectures. This creates new engineering challenges. The podcast provides an overview of the key trends redefining commercial vehicles and their impact on vehicle design, fleet operations, and competitiveness in the European market.
