ESG: Thanks to support of Panattoni (developer, lessor of industrial, warehouse, office space for automotive, other firms in North America, Europe, Asia), racer David Pabiška (SP Moto Bohemia Racing Team, KTM 450 Rally motorcycle) to be first Czech in history to have his fuel emissions offset (through voluntary CO2IN/Amper Holding carbon credits certified by TÜV Nord Czech in amount corresponding to volume of fuel burned and emission factor according to 2024 DEFRA methodology) at Dakar Rally (January 3-17, 2025; Saudi Arabia). Although this only offsets fuel-related emissions (1,880 kg CO2, 800 liters), not total carbon footprint of participation in race, it is important step in effort to minimize impact of motorsport on environment, said Panattoni, aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025

VDIK: German commercial vehicle market to grow by 8.4% to 390,000 units in 2024 (2023: 359,689), of which 300,000 under 6 tonnes (+13%, 266,589) and 90,000 over 6 tons (-3%, 92,800). New van, truck sales in Germany to fall by 5.1% at 370,000 in 2025. Manufacturers developed zero-emission electric and hydrogen trucks that can be ordered and delivered. And many customers are interested in them. Unfortunately, framework conditions for freight ZEVs currently do not meet many expectations. Although there is CO2 surcharge on truck toll, which puts zero-emission trucks in better position than those with internal combustion engines (ICEs), there is lack of planning certainty, for example when it comes to electricity prices, Labbé said. VDIK will continue to advocate for effective government support for purchase of climate-friendly commercial vehicles in future, for example by reinvesting part of revenue from truck toll in transformation of road freight transport. Charging and hydrogen refueling infrastructure for heavy-duty electric trucks is still in its infancy and its construction must now gain momentum very quickly so as not to hinder spread of zero-emission trucks, she added
