    Driver comfort

    Effective vehicle control

  • DRIVER COMFORT & EFFECTIVENESS

    Retaining skilled drivers is key to running an efficient operation. Which is why it’s also common sense to make sure that a trailer contributes to driver effectiveness. So think of the Intelligent Trailer Program as the drivers toolbox. Now all you have to do is choose the tools.

    ADVANCED SAFETY

    Cornering, braking, reversing, delivering… every aspect of a trailer’s journey can hold its potential dangers. Fortunately, thanks to the state-of-the-art safety features of the Intelligent Trailer Program, it’s not only possible to mitigate potential dangers, but also to improve the experience for the driver.

    FUEL AND CO2 REDUCTION

    When driving is your business, fuel economy is of critical importance. And if that goal is realized with minimum human intervention, then driver time can be spent more productively elsewhere. Add to that, the safety and environmental benefits of a vehicle running at optimum levels, and it’s clear that these features are more than ‘nice-to-haves’. In today’s climate they are essential.

    LOAD OPTIMIZATION

    The effect of cargo on the trailer and, ultimately, the truck has implications for safety, driver comfort, fuel efficiency and maintenance. Choose wisely from the Intelligent Trailer Program and you won’t just prevent overload but also optimize cargo distribution and vehicle stability throughout the journey for the best possible performance.

    OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

    There are three keys to operational efficiency: knowledge, speed and simplification. Because the more you know about a vehicle and the less you have to do on the road, the better it is for both driver and fleet management. Which is precisely what this customizable combination of clever functions is designed to achieve.
