We share common values, supporting concrete actions in favor of universal human rights, international labor standards, and environmental protection.
Key challenges for the commercial vehicle industry at SOLUTRANS 2025
More than ever, the commercial vehicle industry is facing a series of unprecedented transformations. While these represent significant challenges, they also offer new opportunities for industry players. In 2025, three key topics will take center stage at SOLUTRANS and be widely debated during the event.
- Evolving energy mixes: In light of today's climate crisis, the road haulage sector is fully committed to low-carbon mobility. However, identifying the most suitable energy solutions for daily business operations remains complex. At the same time, the emergence and potential of new energy sources such as hydrogen are pushing public authorities to rethink urban planning and refueling infrastructure strategies.
- Data & AI: The use and analysis of data, particularly through artificial intelligence, is unlocking new possibilities for the commercial vehicle sector. Autonomous vehicles, predictive maintenance, route optimization, and driver assistance are all becoming increasingly tangible. This also reinforces the crucial role of cybersecurity, a closely related and fundamental topic.
- New regulations: The energy transition is both a political and economic challenge, prompting global and especially European legislators to develop new regulatory frameworks. The objective is to adapt vehicles to new environmental and safety requirements, with key topics including weight and dimension directives, GSR II, Vecto Trailer, and powertrains. These discussions, taking place at the European level in Brussels, are actively shaping the future of the transport sector.
SOLUTRANS 2025: a platform for dialogue and a research hub
SOLUTRANS is much more than just a trade show. It is a platform for dialogue, bringing together all commercial vehicle industry stakeholders to collectively reshape the road haulage ecosystem. It is also a real-world laboratory where professionals can explore the latest innovations and breakthroughs.
SOLUTRANS offers the opportunity to:
- Stay informed about the latest industry trends, through a high-level conference program featuring leading French and international experts, discussing major challenges and opportunities shaping the future of road haulage.
- Test vehicles in real-life conditions on the largest test track in Europe, with the “Road Testing Village”, and discover the trucks and vans best suited to business needs.
- Celebrate innovation, through the presentation of the I-nnovation Awards winners and prestigious international industry awards, including Truck of the Year, Van of the Year, International Pick-up Award, and Truck Innovation Award.
- Experience exceptional and convivial moments, with the SOLUTRANS 2025 Gala Dinner. A 1,400-guest gourmet meal, live entertainment, and award ceremonies, all designed to provide teams, clients, and prospects with a unique and unforgettable experience.
