The Iveco Turbostar was one of the most iconic and innovative trucks ever built, which made history in the 1980s and 1990s. The legend is back in a special edition of the Iveco S-WAY, which pays homage to the Turbo range and its legacy.
The Iveco Turbostar was a heavy-duty truck model that was produced by Iveco from 1984 to 1993, replacing the previous TurboStar and TurboTech models. It was a best-seller with unparalleled performance, featuring a powerful engine range that included a 420-hp V8 engine, a spacious and comfortable cab, and a distinctive design with a large grille and a sloping roof.
The Iveco Turbostar was not only the brand's pride and joy but also of those who had the pleasure of driving such a legend. It was appreciated for its cutting-edge technical skills and its equipment, which immediately placed it at the top of its category. It was also among the first trucks to race in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, proving its reliability and endurance.
The Turbostar was especially popular in Scandinavia, where it conquered the hearts of many truckers and customers who appreciated its versatility, robustness, and efficiency. It was also a symbol of Italian style and quality, which made it stand out from the competition.
Now, Iveco is bringing back the Turbostar in a special edition of the Iveco S-WAY, dedicated to the Turbo range's legacy and its fans. The Iveco S-WAY Turbostar Special Edition is equipped with a 570-hp Cursor 13 engine, a new chassis that has been completely redesigned and built for robustness and versatility, a 12-gear HI-TRONIX automated gearbox, upper and side spoilers, full LED headlights, Driving Style Evaluation and Driver Attention Support, integrated tire pressure monitoring (TPMS), automatically regulated climate control and parking cooler.
