Geotab enhances Freightliner integration with Cummins powertrains: Unlocking fleet efficiency and data insights

Geotab recently expanded its OEM integration with Daimler Truck North America Freightliner trucks. This enhancement includes support for trucks equipped with Cummins powertrains, enabling fleets to streamline operations through access to vehicle data and actionable insights.

Building on Geotab's initial integration with Freightliner, this advancement equips fleets to tackle today's most pressing industry challenges by providing access to vehicle data through the MyGeotab fleet management platform. With these insights, operators can make data-driven decisions to optimize costs, boost sustainability, and enhance safety and productivity.

"By utilizing Geotab telematics to support Freightliner trucks with Cummins powertrains, we're empowering businesses to harness the full potential of their vehicle data," Anil Khanna, director of connectivity services at DTNA, said. "Our factory-installed hardware integration now embedded on all new models equipped with Cummins powertrains offers fleets a ready-to-go solution that simplifies access to data on vehicle performance and operational efficiency, empowering smarter, faster decision-making."

Fleet operators can use the Connected Truck Platform to activate telematics over the air without requiring a separate hardware device. This saves time, reduces costs, and ensures access to vital data.

"This expansion makes mixed-fleet management more seamless than ever," James McDermott, senior solution partnerships manager at Geotab, said. "By integrating data from Freightliner trucks with Cummins powertrains into the MyGeotab platform, we are delivering the actionable insights needed to navigate today's demands for improved efficiency, safety, and sustainability. We're proud to provide operators with access to quality data insights that make overcoming real-world challenges both practical and impactful."
