The TRATON GROUP is expanding the software ecosystem around TRATON ONE OS through strategic technology partnerships and advancing the use of Linux as a common technology standard for future commercial vehicles. As part of this strategy, TRATON plans to incorporate Red Hat In-Vehicle Operating System.
TRATON ONE OS is the Group’s strategic software platform for future vehicles across Scania, MAN, International, and Volkswagen Truck & Bus. By building on a safety-certified Linux foundation, open technologies and standardized interfaces, TRATON aims to create a more standardized environment for suppliers, technology partners, and internal teams across brands and vehicle platforms.
Commercial vehicles are increasingly becoming software-driven products that are continuously updated and improved throughout their operating life. TRATON is addressing this shift by combining its commercial vehicle expertise with open technologies and selected technology partnerships.
“Linux provides an open and scalable foundation for TRATON ONE OS,” said Stefan Teuchert, Senior Vice President EE Platform at TRATON GROUP. “By collaborating with Red Hat, we are making it easier for technology partners to work with our software platform and contribute new capabilities for future commercial vehicles.”
For customers, a Linux-based software foundation within TRATON ONE OS can make selected vehicle functions easier to maintain, secure and update over the vehicle lifecycle. For suppliers and technology partners, common foundations, clearer interfaces and container-based approaches can reduce integration complexity and help new capabilities move more efficiently into TRATON vehicles and services.
“Software-defined vehicles require a flexible, safety-certifiable foundation that can keep pace with rapid innovation without compromising reliability. By leveraging Red Hat In-Vehicle Operating System, TRATON GROUP plans to adopt an open, Linux-based platform that helps simplify partner integration and streamline software updates worldwide across the commercial vehicles of the group’s brands. We look forward to collaborating with TRATON to bring the benefits of open source and container-native technology to the future of commercial transportation,” said Francis Chow, Vice President and General Manager, In-Vehicle Operating System, Red Hat.
TRATON retains responsibility for the overall TRATON ONE OS architecture, vehicle safety, regulatory compliance, and customer-facing vehicle functions. The collaboration is non-exclusive and forms part of TRATON’s broader ecosystem for software-defined commercial vehicles.
