Gary L. Horvat, Vice President – eMobility, Navistar, Inc., USA
Plenary Speaker at CTI SYMPOSIUM USA on 9 September 2021, 09:10 AM EDT
Watch Gary Horvat´s pre-video for CTI USA now. Gary will be discussing “Breakthroughs needed for viable electrification of commercial application” at the symposium 2021.
After the merger Navistar is part of the TRATON. Together they want to meet the challenges of new regulations and rapidly evolving technologies in connectivity, powertrain and autonomous driving for our customers worldwide even better and quicker. The group is going to invest almost two billion dollars in electrification by 2025 – part of it could help Navistar to push BE and FC/H2 programs.

Alexander Edwards, President, Strategic Vision, USA Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) interest, consideration and adoption have gone through changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. And while BEV owners love their products regardless if it is a Leaf or Model S, owners and shoppers found some of the compromises required to make to purchase a new BEV…
Continue readingADS EVO helps automate electrified vehicle testing
The development of electrified vehicles (EVs) is advancing at a rapid pace due to tightening worldwide emissions regulations and the acceleration of electrification strategies. In the lab, these tests require more driving time to complete as each generation of EVs pushes the boundaries of range. Compared to traditional IC engine vehicles, a different driving automation…
