TRATON GROUP opens TRATON ONE OS to technology partners through collaboration with Red Hat

Typo-Logo TRATON single

Munich. 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.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data does not refer to a single vehicle and is not part of the offer but is only intended for comparison between different types of vehicles. Additional equipment and accessories (additional components, tyre formats, etc.) can alter relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, affecting the vehicle's fuel consumption, power consumption, CO₂ emissions and driving performance values in addition to weather and traffic conditions and individual driving behavior. Further information on official fuel consumption data and official specific CO₂ emissions for new passenger cars can be found in the "Guide to fuel economy, CO₂ emissions and power consumption for new passenger car models", which is available free of charge from all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de/co2.
