    2 FCA and CNH Industrial host first international TechPro event Turin, June 7, 2016 The first ever international event held in honor of the TechPro2 youth technical training initiative took RELEASE place today at the headquarters of the Salesians of Don Bosco in Turin, Italy. The event illustrated the activities achieved thus far by TechPro2 and rewarded some of the most deserving students who have participated in the training program from different countries around the world. PRESS PRESS The TechPro2 program is a joint initiative from sister companies Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and CNH Industrial, in collaboration with the National Centre for Salesian Works (CNOS FAP). CNOS FAP’s mission is to promote formation and professional development according to its founder Don Bosco’s teaching principles. The aim of TechPro2 is to provide young people from over 50 countries around the world – such as Poland, Ethiopia, Argentina, Italy, India and Brazil – with the knowledge and commercial skills that are needed to prepare them for future employment in the automotive and industrial machinery sectors. Mopar, the services, Customer Care, original spare parts and accessories brand of FCA, led this project back in 2008 together with CNOS-FAP. CNH Industrial later joined the initiative in 2011, introducing a specific training program related to commercial vehicles. TechPro2 has grown to be more than a development program to form highly specialised individuals; today it has a global scope which actively involves and fosters a direct dialogue with young people, many of which come from socially underprivileged backgrounds, to offer them a secure professional future.

  • CNH Industrial, Following the Merger of Fiat Industrial and CNH Global N.V
    Iveco Bus History The history of Iveco in bus manufacturing can be traced back to the early 20th century, when Renault and Fiat introduced their first bus designs in 1906 and 1907 respectively. Founded in 1899 in Turin, Italy, by a group of engineers and investors including Giovanni Agnelli, the first vehicle built by Fiat (Fabbrica Italiana di Automobili Torino) was a car. The firm soon branched out, though, into trucks and buses. In 1903, Fiat produced its first commercial vehicle, and in 1929 a specialist industrial vehicle division, Fiat Veicoli Industriali, was created. In 1933, Fiat acquired OM, a truck, car and farm machinery maker. The company continued developing its passenger and goods vehicle businesses, and in 1966 made a further purchase, that of UNIC, a French manufacturer of trucks. Three years later the automobile, truck, bus and defence vehicle maker Lancia was acquired by Fiat. In 1974, Fiat became the majority shareholder of Magirus Deutz, a German bus, truck and fire equipment manufacturer. The following year marked the birth of Iveco, when Fiat Veicoli Industriali brought together its own and acquired brands under a single entity, taking its name from the initials of the International Vehicles Corporation it created. A majority shareholding in the Czech bus manufacturer Karosa was acquired in 1996 by Renault VI, whose bus division would later be merged with that of Iveco. Renault expanded its bus interests further with the acquisition in 1998 of the French bus and coach manufacturer Heuliez Bus, which became a subsidiary of Renault VI. In 1999, Iveco and Renault merged their bus and coach interests into a single business, Irisbus, which was owned equally by the two partners.

  • New Holland Construction Adds C237 Model to Compact Track Loader Lineup
    New Holland Construction adds C237 model to Compact Track Loader Lineup New Holland, PA (August 29, 2017) – New Holland Construction expands its compact track loader lineup to include an all-new model, the C237. Ready for any farm, rental yard or construction site, the vertical lift C237 model will hold fast to steep slopes and move easily through various terrains. Plus, to help you become more productive, the C237 can lift more hay bales, haul heavier pallets and bigger boulders, and everything in between without the need to worry about DEF (diesel exhaust fluid). “Our customers told us that while the C238 will fit their needs for lifting and carrying, they didn’t need all the horsepower to complete their tasks,” said Doran Herritt, Product Marketing Manager for New Holland Construction. “Because of this feedback, we developed the C237 to have the same operating capacity of the C238 but with a 74 horsepower engine that does not require DEF.” The C237 model includes: 74 HP engine 3,700-lb rated operating capacity at 50 percent tipping load (7,400-lb tipping load) Long track base of 64.5 inches, with 17.7-inch wide tracks Low ground pressure of 4.3 psi Strong bucket tip and lift breakout forces of 7,360 lbs and 6,110 lbs respectively with 78-inch dirt and foundry bucket For more information on each model’s performance features, serviceability, convenience and configurations on each available model, visit www.construction.newholland.com.

    Corporate Communications Behind the Wheel: Christmas Delivered Many children across the world will be looking forward to opening their presents on Christmas Day. But just imagine if those gifts could have a lasting and positive impact on their lives throughout the whole year and even beyond. This is exactly what IVECO’s Solidarity Cargo initiative has delivered to a remote part of Brazil. Watch this Christmas episode at: cnhindustrial.com/christmasdelivered_en London, December 19, 2019 IVECO, the commercial vehicles brand of CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI /MI: CNHI), has deep roots in Brazil, with extensive manufacturing presence in the country. And in order to integrate more effectively in the countries and communities in which CNH Industrial operates, the Company and its brands adopt social initiatives that respect both people and the region. In this vein, IVECO inaugurated the Solidarity Cargo project in South America back in 2015 with the aim of helping underprivileged communities in concrete ways. This year Christmas cheer was brought to an isolated corner of Minas Gerais state in northern Brazil, to the poetically named town of Fruta de Leite, literally ‘Milk Fruit’ town. The town’s 6,000 inhabitants, predominantly involved in subsistence farming, were visited not by Santa’s sleigh but by an IVECO Hi-Way truck, laden with educational materials, which will be used in the town’s schools and day care centers. Notebooks, pencil cases, educational games and play equipment were among just some of the 2,000 items which will be put to good use. These items will make a significant difference to their day-to-day lives.
