Overview
Off-Highway Vehicles is the only technical event that enables engineers from across the off-highway sectors to share their experiences, provide case studies and showcase updates on emerging technologies.
Ensure your new developments are compliant with the latest emissions regulation, with guidance and insight from the Department for Transport and Delphi Diesel Systems. Hear from the cutting-edge of UK off-highway innovation from Caterpillar and JCB. Learn from case studies across the construction, industrial and military sectors on how to make your vehicles more resilient, efficient and durable. Understand how to overcome the engineering roadblocks and unique challenges facing the off-highway sector with case studies from OEMs and tier one manufacturers.
