Come and discover our exhibits

Tailored to our four focus areas, we’ll introduce use cases to demonstrate our solutions that help our customers master their everyday complexity – in an efficient, electrified, SW-defined, safe, and autonomous way.

Situation:
Fleet operations often run on disconnected systems with too many manual process steps, costing time and money.

Solution:
VDO Fleet Services securely transfer trusted tachograph data into the VDO Fleet Cloud with VDO Link, tachograph and vehicle data becomes available remotely and in real time for dispatching, route planning, tolling, and compliance workflows. Our open interfaces allows fleets and service provider to integrate these data into adjacent software systems such as TMS, vehicle management, or payroll systems, thereby enabling greater efficiency through automated processes.

Impact:
Reduced manual effort, fewer errors, and smarter routing help lower operating costs while improving compliance planning.

We turn trusted data into operational efficiency instantly and at scale.

Situation:
Hardware-centric and distributed architectures limit scalability and slow down innovation.

Solution:
SDV architectures transform vehicles into continuously updatable platforms, enabling over-the-air updates and faster feature delivery.

Impact:
OEMs accelerate time-to-market, reduce integration risks, and unlock long-term value.

We enable continuous vehicle evolution through scalable SDV architectures.

Situation:
OEMs and fleets must improve safety, ensure compliance, and address driver shortages while preparing for automation.

Solution:
We combine radar, camera, and computing power into a scalable intelligence layer that enhances safety today and enables autonomous operations tomorrow.

Impact:
Improved safety, reduced driver workload, and long-term gains through autonomous trucking.

We enhance safety and operational confidence: today assisted, tomorrow autonomous.

Situation:
Electrification depends on reliable charging and energy management across vehicles and fleets.

Solution:
We deliver EV components, system integration, and charging solutions — combined with cloud-based monitoring via VDO Fleet Cloud.

Impact:
OEMs achieve faster industrialization, while fleets gain transparency, uptime, and optimized energy usage.

We enable end-to-end electrification — from in-vehicle charging management to fleet-level infrastructure and services.
