Till Oberwörder, CEO of Daimler Buses, has been elected as Chair of ACEA’s bus and coach division for 2025. He has taken over the function from Domenico Nucera, who is transitioning from the position of President of Iveco Bus to the newly-created role of group’s Chief Quality & Operations Officer (his place has been taken from Claudio Passerini).

Till Oberwörder, that we interviewed in October 2024, was elected by members of ACEA’s bus and coach division, which brings together Europe’s five main bus and coach manufacturers: Daimler Truck, Iveco Group, MAN, Scania, and Volvo Group.

To enable the widespread use of zero-emission buses, manufacturers, decision makers, energy suppliers, and bus operators must work closely together. We need a realistic legal framework and must collaborate to develop the necessary infrastructure.”

Manufacturers’ association ACEA has also recently announced that Christian Levin, President and CEO of Scania, has been elected chair of the Commercial Vehicles Board for 2025. Among the main request made by ACEA to the European institution there is that of anticipating the review of the CO2 reduction targets to 2025, two years before the deadline now scheduled for 2027.

Till Oberwörder, CEO of Daimler Buses and incoming ACEA chairman: “Buses are essential for public transportation and play a crucial role in our modern society: They are one of the most popular means of transportation in urban areas, connect rural regions with cities, and allow people to travel safely, comfortably, and in an environmentally friendly manner. With the transition to zero-emission battery-electric and hydrogen-powered models, buses will become even more sustainable. The transformation of our industry is in full swing, and the need for emission-free public mobility continues to grow. I am therefore firmly convinced that we are in the ‘decade of the bus’. However, to enable the widespread use of zero-emission buses, manufacturers, decision makers, energy suppliers, and bus operators must work closely together. We need a realistic legal framework and must collaborate to develop the necessary infrastructure.”
