Geotab has struck a deal with BYD Trucks Europe for the integration of its European-based fleet management solutions in its vehicles.
Under this agreement, BYD’s electric trucks imported to Europe will be equipped with Geotab’s telematics hardware that captures vehicle data.
This data, with customer agreement, will be utilised by BYD Trucks Europe to enhance vehicle quality, maintenance, and service management – aiming to minimise both planned and unplanned downtime.
Furthermore, BYD Trucks Europe will offer Geotab’s fleet telematics services to its customers, enabling transport companies to access the vehicle data insights for improved efficiency, operations, cost management and fleet sustainability.
Christoph Ludewig, vice president leasing/rental/mobility and OEM at Geotab Europe, said: “Our role as a supplier to BYD Trucks Europe emphasises the trust placed in Geotab’s technology, which enables BYD Trucks Europe to optimise their own operations and provide exceptional services to their customers.
“This relationship with BYD Trucks Europe underscores our commitment to deliver top-tier fleet management solutions while ensuring data security and privacy.
“We are thrilled this opportunity will support the transformation to fleet electrification across Europe.”
