Young transport designers present their ideas on the Iveco Bus of the future

As part of Paris Bus 2035, Iveco Bus and CNH Industrial Design led a student project at L’École de design Nantes Atlantique (The Nantes School of Design) in France, where students of the School’s newly established Transport Design program were asked to put forward ideas on what Paris’ future buses could look like.

As part of Paris Bus 2035, 4205 Iveco Bus and 5561 CNH Industrial Design led a student project at L’École de design Nantes Atlantique (The Nantes School of Design) in France, where students of the School’s newly established Transport Design program were asked to put forward ideas on what Paris’ future buses could look like.

The project was overseen by Claire d’Achon, senior industrial designer at CNH Industrial Bus product ranges and the 15 students presented their concepts using digital sketches, 3D models and mock-up showing their understanding of bus design from the exterior structure to interiors and the services which a bus can offer.

One of the students will be chosen for an internship program at CNH Industrial’s Bus Design Department in Vénissieux, France, where they will work closely with Claire d’Achon and the Bus Design team.

    The cost, environmental and other benefits of the bus trailer concept are obvious. Used in several areas of Germany, as well as Austria, Switzerland, and Luxembourg, vehicle sizes can be adapted to passenger demand. The Ruebenacker group, a public transport provider in the Black Forest region of Germany, is one of more than 20 bus operators in the country that have deployed bus trailers, also referred to as bus trains. The company owns 81 buses and transports nearly six million passengers a year in the Blac

    Shelley Row, former Director of the US Department of Transportation’s ITS Joint Program Office, gives her views on the way forward for the industry. We, as intelligent transportation system (ITS) proponents and engineers, tend to be overly fixated on benefit-cost data. We want decisions to be made on logical grounds for which benefit-cost calculations are optimal. While benefit-cost data is necessary, it is not always sufficient. We can learn from our history where we see three broad groups of ITS deploymen
