FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. - Michimich -- There were smiles and handshakes all around when Work Truck Week^® 2022 returned to Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, March 8–11. North America's largest work truck event often felt more like a long-awaited reunion than a tradeshow, as a verified 12,696 industry professionals gathered in person for the first time in two years.

Work Truck Week, which includes The Work Truck Show^® and Green Truck Summit, is produced annually by NTEA – The Association for the Work Truck Industry. Last year's event was virtual due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

While overall event attendance was down about 7% versus 2020, Green Truck Summit, a full-day program focused on clean energy trends for commercial vehicles, set a record with a verified 835 participants — an increase of more than 58%. The Summit brings together government representatives, educators, fleets, manufacturers, and innovators to provide updates on the work truck industry's path to zero emissions.
