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.

    A new study by civil engineers at MIT shows that using stiffer pavements on America’s roads could reduce vehicle fuel consumption by as much as three per cent, that could add up to 273 million barrels of crude oil per year, or US$15.6 billion at today’s oil prices. This would result in an accompanying annual decrease in CO2 emissions of 46.5 million metric tons.
