Connected Vehicles set to transform the transport industry
With more than 430,000 trucks in the Nordics travelling over 4.2 billion kilometers per year, small changes can make a big difference
Businesses that rely on moving products or people know the complexity of managing fleets, keeping them up and running, ensuring cost efficiency and juggling onboard IT systems. With more than 430,000 trucks in the Nordics travelling over 4.2 billion kilometers per year*, the benefits of solving just one of these challenges are huge. But what if you could solve all with a single onboard system that made every drive more cost-efficient and sustainable? That’s what Telia Connected Vehicle delivers.
The complexity of modern trucks makes the industry look for new ways of managing the increasing number of connected solutions onboard commercial vehicles. And where each system demands its own SIM-card and onboard screen – it’s hard for drivers to work efficiently and for traffic management to get a 360 ° view of the data they need to really take advantage of the benefits of digitalization.
From many onboard IT systems to one
Telia is a market leader in smart public transport solutions in the Nordics and are now applying this expertise to the transport and logistics industry. Telia Connected Vehicle uses an onboard unit to collect data from multiple systems in the vehicle and deliver it in real-time to the driver. It also sends it to the cloud to be used in fleet management systems and portals. For the driver, this means, one easy to use and install onboard system, with one SIM-card, and one screen. That makes driving not only a lot simpler, but also a lot safer. Telia Connected Vehicle also enables a whole ecosystem of smart services ranging from Eco-Driving and Vehicle Health to location and cargo monitoring, Driver-ID, Remote Tachograph – as well as all the voice and connectivity services you’d expect. But that’s just the start. Because it’s built on a highly-secure open platform, you can add additional services or develop your own. The onboard unit plugs into a vehicle’s CAN bus and collects nearly 90% of all on-board data.
For the driver this means, one easy to use and install onboard system with one screen. That makes driving not only a lot simpler, but also a lot safer.
Real-time eco-driving support saves fuel and carbon emissions
With Telia Eco-Driving your drivers will get constant feedback on the way they drive. Whether they are breaking too hard or accelerating unnecessarily for example. This has been proven to not only improve the way they drive, but to reduce fuel costs and vehicle emissions by up to 15%.
Full vechicle control - for all fleets
Being able to collect and analyze the data from each vehicle enables fleet owners to monitor its health and schedule predictive maintenance to reduce downtime. Tires, brakes and engine wear etc. are all monitored to keep your fleet moving forward and not sitting in a repair shop. And because the solution taps into the raw vehicle data through the CAN bus, it by-passes the walled gardens of proprietary systems and lets you see all of your vehicles on the same screen – regardless of brand. So whether you own 30 vehicles or 3,000 the ecosystem of services Telia Connected Vehicle unlocks gives fleet owners much greater control of their fleet.
An evolving solution backed by long-term thinking
Telia is committed to transforming the transport industry. Because it’s not only an area where we can deliver big savings to our customers, it’s also an area where we can help make a big difference for our environment. With our deep knowledge of the industry and the best connectivity network in the Nordics, this is one solution that is really going places.
