LONDON, Nov. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- What does the future of engine technology hold? This is precisely what FPT Industrial, the global powertrain brand of CNH Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI / MI: CNHI), set out to answer at its inaugural Tech Day. The day, which saw 40 international trade and business journalists converge at the CNH Industrial Village in Turin, Italy, consisted of a roundtable discussion, product launches, a tour of the FPT Industrial testing center and test drives with products from CNH Industrial brands, New Holland Agriculture and IVECO.

One of the key areas of focus at Tech Day was on natural gas engines and FPT Industrial's leadership in this field. The brand presented the most complete natural gas engine line-up on the market for industrial applications and unveiled its new Cursor 13 NG engine, the most powerful 100% natural gas engine available on the market today.

"Natural gas is the cleanest and most virtuous thermal engine fuel. Its technology is well-tested, ready for the market and produces environmental benefits right now. We have adopted natural gas across thousands of vans and trucks. And now we are the first to introduce this technology for agricultural applications as well," said Annalisa Stupenengo, FPT Industrial Brand President, during her opening address.

The specially-designed FPT Tech Cube was a standout feature of the event, giving space to the innovations that the brand is working on. The area included a virtual reality experience, mock-ups and applications to present a look at future technological challenges and developments.
