iVT Expo 2025

Germany, Cologne - June 11-12, 2025
iVT Expo 2025 iVT Expo is an annual international exhibition (originally launched in 2018) that showcases the latest components and technologies from leading international suppliers. The show has a compact format with 150-200 exhibitors, giving engineers and designers of industrial vehicles a highly efficient environment in which to review the latest technologies and future concepts without all the inconvenience and complexity of many of the older giant industry events.

iVT Expo only showcases the components, services and technologies that go into making the next generation of industrial vehicles and improving manufacturing and testing processes.

Latest new materials; new engine technologies, including electric motors and hybrid applications; new control systems; sensors; testing and validation services and technologies, from durability rigs to EMC and NDT technologies; equipment for cabs; technologies required for operator-free/driverless vehicles; and innovative ideas that will help manufacturers of industrial vehicles improve product design, efficiency and thus sales - all under one roof!

Vehicle categories covered by iVT Expo include anything from off-road loaders, mining equipment and diggers, to tractors, cranes and lift-trucks. In short, technologies and services for every class of industrial vehicle are on display.

There is also a specialized pay-to-attend conference that features tracks on autonomous industrial vehicle technology; electric and hybrid industrial vehicle technology; and cab design, controls, ergonomics and HMI. More than 80 experts will address the critical trends shaping future vehicle development.
