Brisbane Truck Show offers operators the opportunity to see the latest innovations including LZEVs with pre-show finance available through Jade Truck Loans. With the show date closing in, now is the time for business owners, managers and operators to arrange their visit and pre-arrange their finance to be ready to order new vehicles and products at the event. The show only happens every two years, so make sure you don’t miss the 2025 event. It runs over 15-18 May at the Brisbane Convention Centre and is held in conjunction with the Heavy Equipment and Machinery Show, with tickets covering both shows.

The list of exhibitors is now available with the top names in the industry set to display their vehicles, trailers and other products.

Low & Zero Emission Vehicles (LZEVs) on Display

Not surprisingly, LZEVs are set to be showcased at the Brisbane Truck Show. Models on display will include light through to heavy-duty vehicles. Scania will be showing its next generation model, the 40 BEV electric truck. With rigid or prime mover configuration, the 40 BEV is said to offer a range of approximately 400 klms. A number of cab variants are available to suit many applications and operations.

Volvo is launching its zero emission Aero cab FH range in Australia, which the company sees as an important step to lowering operating costs for its customer. The aerodynamic design of the Aero offers savings and benefits with greater benefits on the electric model.

Hyundai will debut its XCIENT fuel cell model at the show. This vehicle lays claim to being the ‘world’s first mass produced hydrogen cell heavy duty truck’, showcasing the company’s solution for alternative fuels.

The latest tech from key areas around the globe will be on display on the Freightliner, Fuso and Mercedes stands with zero emission vehicles. The eActros and eEconic will be displayed by Mercedes while the eCanter will be shown by Fuso.

What to See at Brisbane Truck Show

While vehicles are the main attraction for many visitors to industry expos, there are a lot of other events happening at the upcoming truck show. Truck Week 25 will run alongside the show with activations and attractions in various Brisbane locations.

Attractions include the National Show ‘N’ Shine Championships with prized custom prime movers, heritage vehicles on display and a careers hub. A highlight of the careers hub will be the truck simulator interactive experience from the Brisbane Driving School.

For enthusiasts keen to support their favourite brand, head to Merchandise Alley for special merch for sale. A Family Zone is running to support those bringing their little ones to the event. Special accommodation offers are available for show attendees through Ozacomm with details on the event website.

Heavy Vehicle Finance Opportunities

With doors opening to the show on May 15, now is the ideal time to consider pre-arranging your heavy vehicle finance. Our pre-approved loan service provides operators with the convenience and confidence of knowing they do have the finance to proceed with ordering their vehicle at a show or expo.

For operators travelling from interstate and remote areas, being in a position to proceed with an order at the event may save time making another dealership visit later on. For new, small and start-up operators, pre-approved finance can be invaluable in expediting the purchase of a vehicle.

The process of pre-arranging finance is simple and follows the same application and approval processes as when a loan is sourced after the vehicle purchase is confirmed. All loan products can be pre-approved - Rent-to-Own, Lease, Chattel Mortgage and Commercial Hire Purchase. No and Low Doc options are available for new operators.

The same interest rates will apply for both pre-and post-purchase loans and lenders use the same criteria to approve applications and make rate and term offers. Our pre-arranged loans include fixed rates, fixed terms, fixed repayments, tax deductions, balloons, residuals and buy backs. The same loans apply to diesel and low and zero emission vehicles.

To be in a position to order in Brisbane, speak with one of our brokers to start the finance process.
