Fiat Powertrain Technologies (FPT) Industrial was formed as a combined entity with the best of IVECO, CASE IH, and NEW HOLLAND engine, transmission, and axle technology coming together. It is known to have leveraged the expertise and capacity to be at the forefront of new engine technology. With patented technology for Direct-Injection Diesel engines, the company traces its roots back to 1934. In 1938, the first turbocharger was used with a diesel truck engine. The company's presence in India can also be traced to brands like CNH Industrial in 2013. With its recent partnership on the Blue Energy Motors, for the 5528 LNG truck, the company with a projected capacity of 10,000 units per annum has set the ball rolling again.
The company is known to have tasted its first success with alternative fuel technology when it introduced Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) engines on Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVS), in 2002. The agreement that has the company own a minority stake in Blue Energy Commercial Vehicles Pvt. Ltd., a zero-emission truck technology company headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra is the base it hopes to build upon. Commenting on the India foray, Sylvain Blaise, President-Powertrain Business Unit, Iveco Group, said, "It is a great honour for us to serve Blue Energy Motors with our N67 NG supply engine agreement, and at the same time enlarge the scope of our partnership confirming our commitment as a technology provider to fully exploit our capability in alternative propulsions." This agreement is the first step in a potential long-term partnership, based on the specific characteristics of the Indian commercial transport market.
