All roads lead to RTX 2025

March 11, 2025

For the first time, FOCUS has been invited to the United Kingdom’s premier trucking event, the Road Transport Expo (RTX) – and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Taking place from 24 to 26 June 2025 at the NAEC Stoneleigh in Warwickshire, RTX 2025 will feature over 300 exhibitors and a host of activities.

From the latest truck models to industry seminars on decarbonisation and fleet safety, RTX 2025 is set to cover all bases for hauliers, fleet managers, and anyone with a passion for the open road. So, if like us you love all things trucks, this is the event for you.

Trucks, trends, and torque: What to expect at RTX 2025

RTX 2025 is, quite literally, bringing out the big guns. With all the major truck manufacturers showcasing their latest models – including DAF, MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, and Volvo – it’s going to be a paradise for anyone with diesel (or e-mobility) in their veins.

Speaking of electric, there’s a lot to get charged up about (pun very much intended). Chinese manufacturer Yutong will debut an electric 7.5-tonner in the UK market, alongside Volta’s all-electric truck. For those who prefer to keep things traditional, on the other hand, there will still be plenty of diesel trucks to admire.

Ride and Drive area offers test drives

Want to get behind the wheel of the latest trucks? RTX’s Ride and Drive area offers visitors the chance to test a range of vehicles in a safe environment – from diesel trucks to all-electric newcomers. It’s a bit like speed dating, but for trucks.

Knowledge Zone: Stay on top of industry issues

Beyond the shiny grilles and roaring engines, RTX 2025’s Knowledge Zone offers a deep dive into the issues shaping the road transport sector. With seminars on fleet safety, decarbonisation, regulations, and future industry trends, it’s a chance to learn from the best.

What else is on offer?

Apart from trucks, RTX 2025 promises a one-stop shop for everything from workshop equipment, tyres, and trailers to specialist bodies and tankers. Whether visitors are on the hunt for new parts or just window-shopping for the latest in haulage tech, there’s plenty to keep everyone busy.

At FOCUS, we’ve covered the industry from every angle – but there’s something about being on the ground, surrounded by the latest trucks and tech, that’s hard to beat. We’ll be reporting live from the event, bringing you all the highlights, interviews, and news from the show.

With free entry (just remember to register in advance), RTX 2025 is shaping up to be an unmissable event for anyone in the road transport industry. Keep your eyes peeled for the FOCUS team – we’ll be the ones geeking out over the new electric trucks. Don’t forget to follow FOCUS for all the latest updates from the show. See you there!
