Jury

Sustainable Truck of the year (Sty) is awarded by a free and independent jury formed by professional journalists. The mission is to enlarge the jury by involving jury members from all over Europe. Sustainable Truck of the Year award, created by the specialized magazine Vado e Torno, targets the news coming from the truck world available on the European market. The awards (three categories: ‘Van’, ‘Distribution’ and ‘Tractor’) are assigned on the basis of a concept of sustainability and efficiency intended not only as a reduction of pollutant exhaust emissions, but also as an ability to lower the threshold of risk, to make driving more relaxing, to reduce the impact on the resident population and to exit from a production cycle that moves, from start to finish, from concepts of sustainability.

SUSTAINABLE TRUCK AND VAN

Sustainable Truck&Van is a newborn international website fully focused on low- and zero-emissions trucks and vans as well as sustainability in the field of heavy-duty and commercial vehicle transport. It belongs to the editorial platform of the publishing house Vado e Torno Edizioni and devotes attention to product news, case studies, market and technology trends, interviews and international exhibitions.

The network of Sustainable Truck&Van is made by a website updated every day with the latest news and trends, by a weekly newsletter addressed to the subscribers and by our social media channels, in order to meet the needs of a broad and diverse international audience.

Sustainable Truck&Van aims to support and promote the push towards energy transition in heavy-duty and commercial vehicle transport. The Next Generation EU Plan in Europe as well as other standards that are about to enter into force all over the world will soon lead to a scenario featured by a higher degree of sustainability.

CNG, LNG, electrification or the introduction of hydrogen-fueled vehicles are supposed to allow a significant drop of emissions. Of course, in order to meet the targets and achieve a successful transition, not only the vehicles but the whole chain need to be actually sustainable: we’re talking about infrastructure and energy supply. As a matter of fact, some major players are gradually shifting their focus, while some other players are entering the truck and van market. Sustainable Truck&Van will give voice to all of them.

VADO E TORNO

Vado e Torno has depth technical contents, mainly dedicated to the transport companies transporting the 80% of goods distributed in Italy.
A very important side is related to the sectors of earth moving, heavy haula- ge, food transport. The magazine deals with all kinds of vehicles, from the top weight truck (Tir) to the small urban de- livery van.

Vado e Torno publishes every month the most complete in-depth technical road tests performed on its own 500 ki- lometer test track; analyses new models, introduces components and accessories and helps operators with studies about operative costs, plus fiscal, financial and economics columns.

Technical contents go together with a modern lay-out: colour pages, easy un- derstandable texts, graphs and boards to make the rea- ding as easy and inte- resting as possible. Established in 1962 Vado e Torno is the first Italian magazi- ne about trucks and trucking. Among all the European magazines, Vado e Torno boasts the longest marching order with neither interruption or name change. It opened a new course for modern professional publishing, by introducing a journalism made of facts, enquiries, technical and economics analysis.
