ARTSA Matters October 2018

ARTSA Data update

ARTSA Data update

ARTSA Data registration report for end September 2018

Third quarter (Q3) new registration data to end September 2018 shows a flattening of growth in the heavy vehicle sector (GVM >4.5 tonne) following strong growth that commenced at the beginning of 2016. The ARTSA Data shows Q3 growth flattening for new trailer registrations with a similar trend for prime movers. Rigid vehicle new registrations appear to be maintaining their growth. The ARTSA Data September quarter report is here. For those wanting more details ARTSA provides extensive reports for a fee. You can contact Rob Perkins about these reports at exec@artsa.com.au

Hannover Commercial Vehicle Fair and HVTT15 conference in Rotterdam

These two events were back to back this year and close to each other. I visited both. In short:
• Europe is 100% committed to the electrification of the road fleet for short haul and is trying to work out if long haul can also be converted in the near future
• Connected vehicles was the buzz word at Hannover with plenty of exhibitors promoting their wares

I will give a full report in our 22nd November meeting at the LaTrobe Golf Club and we can discuss the significance of these kinds of initiatives to Australia. We will also cover the new Office of Future Transport Technologies, and what that might mean not only for industry, but the existing (and somewhat competing) organisations such as NTC and BITRE.

The HVTT15 (Heavy Vehicle Transport Technology 15th biennial conference) papers are here
