Besides Europe, the company operates in China, Russia, Australia and Latin America. More than 6,000 service outlets in over 100 Countries guarantee technical support wherever in the world an IVECO vehicle is at work.

IVECO – South Africa

IVECO South Africa (Pty) Ltd established in 1993, is the local subsidiary of IVECO SpA and is located with other FIAT Group companies at the Head Office in Midrand, Gauteng.

Over the past sixteen years in South Africa, the company has managed to grow and capture a significant share of the local South Africa Common Customs Union marketplace. IVECO South Africa is also responsible for 23 Sub Saharan countries with ever increasing sales opportunities being maximised.

The current product line-up is sourced directly from the European manufacturing plants, and with a variety of local adaptations performed in South Africa, are ready to be sold to be meet the requirements and specialist demands of our local market.

The IVECO Daily, ranging from 3.5 to 6.5 tons, is available in a choice of models with different body, chassis, wheelbase and carrying capacity options. It introduces new standards of technology, performance and comfort into the world of commercial vehicles and passenger transport, while losing none of the sturdiness, practicality and versatility of a great work tool. IVECO Daily also offers African professionals three important features: the support of a “C” section long-member chassis, adaptability to the greatest number of missions and bodies, and the thrust of powerful and economical turbodiesel engines.

Between 10 and 18 tons, whatever the mission, whatever the application, the IVECO Eurocargo performs. It adapts to the most diverse situations: in town, out of town, on difficult terrain and in extreme climate conditions. With the choice of day and sleeper cab variants, the IVECO Eurocargo equipped with the Tector engine (ranging from 180HP to 280HP) is widely appreciated within Africa for its excellent torque and high flexibility at low revolutions, providing best in class performance and reliability. Apart from the standard 4x2 version, the IVECO Eurocargo is now also available with 4x4 axle configuration giving an even wider choice to the operator.

Firmly establishing its place as the off road vehicle of choice, the IVECO Trakker is offering operators the perfect combination of performance and productivity, whilst delivering uncompromised reliability. With product features such as the Raccor fuel filter and optional single reduction rear axles, the Trakker has the ability to work in all weathers over any type of terrain, from unsurfaced roads to extreme off-road conditions, and yet still providing superior levels of comfort and responsiveness for the driver.

Utilising Euro 3 compliant engines ranging from 350HP to 480HP, the IVECO Stralis is able to meet, and indeed exceed, the requirements of today’s African professionals operating in the heavy-duty haulage sector. With three primary cab options, Stralis AD (day), Stralis AT (sleeper) and Stralis AS (super space), this acclaimed product has created new standards of transportation performance by offering a superior combination of style and optimised productivity that will satisfy the most demanding operators.

IVECO is a global organisation in every sense of the word, but with an ethos that says: “Think global – act local.” Due to the increasing strategic importance of Africa, we made an in-depth product study, by taking advantage from our own industrial potential, in order to establish the best solution that enables us to satisfy your customer needs and requests. With the invaluable support of our rapidly growing Dealer Network, we have assigned qualified, specialised personnel to the fastest growing areas within the whole of Africa, while demanding an optimum level of service coverage with over 80 service points as of December 2009. Despite the current world economic crisis, we have managed to increase our marketshare in South Africa, and with your support, 2010 will enable us to grow even further!
