Spot It! IAA Commercial Vehicles

October 1, 2014

One of the world's major motor shows, the Internationale Automobil Austellung (IAA), was subdivided into two events in 1991. In odd-numbered years the IAA Passenger Cars is held in Frankfurt, and in even-numbered years the IAA Commercial Vehicles is hosted in Hanover.

The latter event was first held in 1992. It featured 1,284 exhibitors from 29 countries. By 2012, the show was more international than ever, attracting 2,000 exhibitors from 46 countries and 260,000 visitors. Drive It! takes a look at this year's show and investigates the latest trends in green and safety technology for commercial vehicles.
